| KidZui turns Firefox into fun, kid-safe

Sync 1.4 and the status bar
,----[ Quote ]
| As we move closer to inclusion in Firefox
| 4, and the add-on continues to become more
| performant and stable, we feel it is the
| right time to move the UI into the
| background. An important factor in this
| decision is that we will be tuning Sync to
| update smaller chunks, more frequently,
| when youâre actually using a particular
| device. Currently we default to hourly
| syncs between multiple computers, which is
| something that will change very soon. At a
| greatly-increased frequency, the visual
| distraction (and the performance overhead
| of continuous UI updates) was not going to
| be acceptable, so we needed to make
| changes. That said, no first attempt is
| perfect, and we still have work to do on
| the concerns noted above.
