Signed Addons - the End of TGM?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

In the Future all Addons must be signed by Mozilla to work in Firefox 41.

Is this the End for TGM? Or is there really a way around to sign inofficial 
Updates?

Maybe Miguel will sign the addon. Signing for non AMO hosted addons will be 
possible.

2nd way:
You can use nightlies and disable the signed stuff.

FF41 disables now any unsigned, but you can override this...but FF42 will be 
the one that will not allow it in the beta (not sure about nightly).  

Hope TGM can still be kept alive and get it signed.    Keep up the great work 
keeping this moving...still cannot live w/o it.

As already said, in FF 41 beta is possible to disable check for unsigned 
extension.
For example, here described this process:

dev-and-nightly/

But when I did it and TGM returned to work, it didn't work anymore - the all 
tabs captions are empty :(

Save this GREAT EXTENSION, please!!!

Your picture looks more like a problem with a 3rd party addon. TGM works also 
with actual nightly.

No idea who will take care the signing process. In nightly it will go ahead to 
work with the switch.

This is now unable to run in Firefox beta which does not support unsigned 
addons (even by configuration option). Will any maintainers work to get this 
signed? Please see the FAQ, it seems pretty painless:
