Once again the commenter referred to updating addons: “Firefox 5.0 (which will be out not long after 4.0) will have completely transparent addon updating - not even a dialog box.” Extensions you install using Firefox are kept locally, on Linux in your ~/.mozilla/firefox-{version}/{profile}/extensions/ folder. This is the only part that is intended to be self-updated and there is nothing preventing that.
