Recently I discovered two new folder in my profile folder iwtheme & jetpack now I did a litle research about the jetpack and apparently its for add-on developers, which I'm not so whats this folder doing there anyway? And I couldn't find anything about the iwtheme folder but exploring it's contents revealed what I suspected that its a container for themes/persona's so what version was this new file location added and why are themes stored in two locations now rather than one?

hello, both these folders will contain content of the add-ons you've installed.

Yes I understand that but I remember about 7 versions ago the iwtheme folder wasn't there but I found it contains booth the lightweighttheme-footer&lightweighttheme-header but the same two files are also stored loosely in the Firefox profile folder, though I'm not entirely sure which add-on generated the jetpack folder. But my main questions regards the iwtheme folder when & why did Mozilla decide to add this location?
