Firefox 31 - Critical Extension Breakage

Everything works great in Firefox 31 (currently in Aurora) until you try to open the Ghostery popup menu from the taskbar button. After you open it, you notice it is not interactable, not closable, click somewhere else or even on the icon itself does absolutely nothing.

Currently I am using Firefox Aurora on Debian stable, and Ghostery shows up on all of my virtual workspaces as well, until I kill Firefox, which is the only solution. It still blocks things, but trying to access anything regarding it, automatically fails.

Killing Firefox after opening the extension has to be done manually, not in-program or using the top-right close button. It also makes a lot of other extensions persist after you enable it, but only after you enable it.

The end result is Firefox becomes wholly unresponsive and unusable.
