Why didn't Firefox warn me that it would disable an incompatible add-on prior to silently updating itself?

I just restarted Firefox and a window popped up saying that it had upgraded itself and that it was checking for compatibility with my add-ons. Unfortunately, one of them, which I rely on quite extensively, apparently is not compatible with FIrefox 22.0.

So now I'm stuck. While I'm hopeful that this will resolve itself, I decided to make sure that it won't happen again. I checked my preferences and found that Firefox was set to automatically install updates and to warn me if this would disable any of my add-ons.

So, here is my question: Why didn't it warn me that this would disable an add-on?

I am running (now) Firefox 22.0 on a Mac running 10.7.5.

--wpd

I have no idea why you did not get a warning. It may be possible to enable the add-on. Click add-ons then extensions this will display all add-ons installed on your firefox. Is there a enable option? If not consider removing add-on and reinstalling it. Hope this helps let me know if it does.
