Using the 'browserAction.setBadgeText' API method with a text that has a plus character in it won't display the plus character. I've tried using the minus sign and it displays just fine. The plus sign won't be displayed.

Did you try this in the current Firefox release (57.0.1)?

Try to ask at the Add-ons forum.

Yes, it still happens in Firefox 57.0. The attached images show how it looks like with a plus sign in it and with a minus sign in it.
