There’s a new version of firefox out now and the notification in the current version has actually been pretty useful. Rather than telling me there is a new version, I download it and *then* discover that most of the extensions I have won’t work, this time the installation gives me the ability to find out which extensions are not set to work with the new version. The only downside is that most of the extensions that it wouldnt work with are currently disabled in the version that I am running at the moment.

Why don’t you just change extensions.lastappversion in the about:config to 1.5 or earlier? I have never had any problems with that except for large jumps (i.e. 1.0 to 1.5).
