I noticed inhttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-ons-cause-issues-are-on-blocklist#w_what-does-the-blocklist-do you publish a pretty succinct explanation of your blocklist and what it does. I also noticed that neither this nor the blocklist tells us WHY a particular plugin from running, other than offering generic messages that the plugin could be "vulerable" or known to be unstable. Do your developers have a particular criteria they apply for determining whether a particular plugin should be on the block list. If so can we know what that criteria is? The reason I ask is that I work in a managed environment and we try to make sure that our software runs as flawlessly as possible. If a plugin is being blocked for a valid reason, it would be good to know what that reason is so that we can shore up the problem.
