since firefox 35, users going trough the ask-a-question flow don't need to install an extension anymore in order to submit their information from about:support, instead they can just click on a "share data" button. unfortunately "modified preferences" are no longer included as long as bug 1091944 is addressed...

That open bug depends on bug 1091942 which is still unresolved and unassigned.

Ignore the above, it's just a test of the "share data" aaq feature. Modified preferences are still missing from "More system details".
