Some parts of about:config don't seem to work after the latest update: from what I've seen both browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete and xpinstall.signatures.required don't seem to do anything after changing their value. Is there anything I can do to fix that?

Starting with Firefox version 48, the add-on signing requirement will be enforced with no override in Release and Beta versions of Firefox. See the MozillaWiki article, Add-ons/Extension Signing for more information.

Whats the point of fading out the xpinstall.signatures.required? All it does is worsen the experience for the end user. Also what about browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete?
