Site-note: I don't think that this manual UI will be all too useful beyond your
initial testing, I consider this temporary code. Screenshotter creates a new
Firefox profile, installs Adblock Plus and itself into that profile
automatically and runs Firefox then - this extension needs to run the same way.
Starting it in a random Firefox profile, potentially with other extensions and
non-default browser settings just isn't very useful.

+const Cu = Components.utils;
+
+Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm");
+
+let crawling = false;
+
+function require(module)
+{
+  let result = {};
+  result.wrappedJSObject = result;
+  Services.obs.notifyObservers(result, "abpcrawler-require", module);
+  return result.exports;
+}
+
+let {Crawler} = require("crawler");
+
+function onUnload()
+{
+  const fields = ["backend-url", "parallel-tabs"];
+  fields.forEach(function(field)
+  {
+    let control = document.getElementById(field);
+    control.setAttribute("value", control.value);

Are you trying to make the field values persist? Unfortunately, this won't
happen automatically if you change attributes manually. You need to add:

  document.persist(control.id, "value");

+  });
+}
+
+function onClose()
+{
+  return !crawling;

Maybe show a message why the window cannot be closed right now?

+}
+
+function getBackendUrl()
+{
+  let backendUrlTextBox = document.getElementById("backend-url");
+  return backendUrlTextBox.value;
+}
+
+function getParallelTabs()
+{
+  let parallelTabsTextBox = document.getElementById("parallel-tabs");
+  return parseInt(parallelTabsTextBox.value);
+}
+
+function onAccept()
+{
+  let backendUrl = getBackendUrl();
+  let parallelTabs = getParallelTabs();
+  let dialog = document.getElementById("abpcrawler-crawler");

How about using document.documentElement here?

+  let acceptButton = dialog.getButton("accept");
+  crawling = acceptButton.disabled = true;
+  Crawler.crawl(backendUrl, parallelTabs, window.opener, function()

[Wladimir Palant, 2012/09/21 15:36:18]

Of course we could have the condition that window.opener is null or
window.opener.closed is true - the user closed that browser window already. Add
a check and an error message maybe?

+  {
+    crawling = acceptButton.disabled = false;
+  });
+  return false;
+}
