Description Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2008-11-16 09:23:56 EST 
Currently, when you're working with an extension and you don't have the corresponding .exsd file, we simply offer awesome content assistance in the form of "Generic." Since this is so obvious to the user, they know that the .exsd is missing and they need to go download source.

Ok, enough joking. I think we should simply warn the user via the IMessageManager in the extensions page... set a warning and say that "exsds can't be found" or some intelligible message.

bugday or slideday, i've picked my side!

note that this patch depends on the fix for bug 255466 (bad behaviour of removeMessage() of the MessageManager :-/ )

Works well for me, marking for M4.  We'll wait on bug 255466 as it would be annoying to have messages stick around.
