I propose we develop an add-on to make custom Sync configs easier. 

The workflow would be:

1) Before you log in to sync, you install the Firefox Sync Configuration 
add-on. If you're already logged in to Sync, it yells at you.

2) You enter any necessary URLs/config values in a friendly-ish UI, which does 
remote sanity checking of URLs and possibly service discovery. When it's done, 
your browser is configured to use the custom sync and FxA servers of your 
choosing. We could possibly often "instant config" buttons for well known 
alternative Fx Sync providers, e.g., ownCloud.

3) Log into sync. 

Would an add-on approach be viable for Fennec as well?
