I think I might have a hot track:
I named my scripts "1234567890123...". With 91 digits it works. With 92
it crashes.
We have the following path to a script:
C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\a1b2c3d4.default\gm_scripts\scriptname\scriptname.user.js
Now we apply the Windows path variable for the application data folder:
%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\a1b2c3d4.default\gm_scripts\scriptname\scriptname.user.js
Then we remove the scriptname:
%AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\a1b2c3d4.default\gm_scripts\\.user.js
This string has a length of 73 characters. Together with a 91 characters
long scriptname, the path is 255 characters long. For the 92 chars, it's
257. You know 256 is some kind of magic number. I think it might be good
to investigate in this direction.
Everything in the menu and the manager worked as always, but as soon as
it switched from evaluating the config.xml to the actual file path, it
failed. I guess Firefox has a limited path length.
In my trials afterwards, 91 characters also failed, but I think it's
nevertheless a good point to start.
