Perspectives extension contacts network notaries whenever your browser connects an HTTPS website.\n\nThe extension provides two primary benefits:\n\n 1. If you connect to a website with an untrusted (e.g.,self-signed certificate)*, Firefox will give you a very nasty security error and force you to manually install an exception. Perspectives can detect whether a self-signed certificate is valid, and automatically overrides the annoying security error page if it is safe to do so.\n 2. It is possible that an attacker may trick one of the many Certificate Authorities trusted by Firefox into incorrectly issuing a certificate for a trusted website. Perspectives can also detect this attack and will warn you if things look suspicious.

Refractor creates a Prism web application from within Firefox. Users can manually create web applications using "Tools > Convert Website to Application".
The extension can also detect embedded web application bundles on web pages and prompt the user to install the bundle.
Prism (formerly, Webrunner) is a prototype application that lets users split web applications out of their browser and run them directly on their desktop.
Colors every tab in a different color and makes them easy to distinguish while beautifying the overall appearance of the interface.
Stylish allows easy management of user styles. User styles empower your browsing experience by letting you fix ugly sites, customize the look of your browser or mail client, or just have fun. With an online repository at userstyles.org, you don't even need to know how to write styles yourself; just a couple clicks and the chosen style is applied. Stylish is to CSS what Greasemonkey is to JavaScript, and unlike other methods of using user styles, most styles take effect immediately.
