Are you able to reproduce this on b2g by any chance?

This is not really a regression, but due to a bug fixed between 17 and 18. The relevant code is at https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/dom/apps/src/Webapps.jsm#1527, and here's what this does: Instead of just checking the origin of the current page to know if we're the app, we also make sure that we are actually running the app itself, not that we simply navigated to the app index in a web browser. In your test case, we never launch the app itself, so the install page is not running as an app and getSelf() never returns the app you installed.

Ok, how do I test from inside the web page that the particular app from that web page is installed, then? I installed the web app from trunk, then opened the web app shortcut that was added to the desktop, but then I still get the INSTALL button. Shouldn't I get the UNINSTALL button then?

You'll want to use checkInstalled here instead.
Ok, thanks, I didn't see that in: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Apps/Getting_Started#Checking_whether_the_app_is_installed I guess that's something that needs to be documented then.
Ok, that is working now. But now the uninstall() part of the code seems to be broken. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here.
