Currently we support running the about:addons UI in both a standalone

Firefox has only used the latter for many years, but we've continued
to maintain tests for both, which increases both our maintenance
burden and also the time it takes tests to run.

This removal is being tracked in bug 1349723.

Doesn't Thunderbird use the standalone window?

I believe they currently use a tab. If they do use, and want to continue using, a standalone window, they can always switch to embedding it in a tabbed window with the chrome UI hidden.

Thunderbird uses standalone windows for the address book, message composition, and message display (i.e., reading *.eml files), but not for the add-ons tab, as far as I know. These should all be tabs, IMO. No idea if that relates to this Firefox functionality removal, however.

(I wrote a private add-on that merges the address book into the main mail window since I hate the standalone window so much. I never got around to publishing it though since I couldn't figure out how to delete the mail window menu for the new tab.)
