 OK, so you mean that TBB Team prefer anybody filing a new ticket for even
 minor inconsistencies, so that it'll look like a Q & A site with separate
 discussion for every question. Right?
 > That being said, all "lastUpdate" prefs on my TBB are in units of
 seconds, either rounded or not. What is unusual is that this is a string
 pref instead of an integer pref, but I don't think that is a problem.
 Mozilla obviously uses string prefs for reals and big integers. And your
 pref is a string, so it points to it is expected to be a big int, perhaps,
 for milliseconds.
