@mixedpuppy in the bug you said:
it should be a window. Primarily because if there is any current or future api that would allow an addon to initiate oauth in a non-browser window[1], it would be fairly awkward to switch windows to do the oauth, then switch back.
It is exactly what currently happens with the current implementation of the Firefox Notes sidebar add-on.
It opens a new window, then it send an email where you need to click on a link to validate the login flow.
Then the click open a new tab with the sidebar on the side.
So you get a sidebar, a tab and a popup. You have to close the tab manually and then to wait for the popup to close itself eventually. It is really confusing.
For a sidebar add-on I wish we could start the login flow in a tab next to the sidebar which will make it much more intuitive IMO
Shane do you think you could have a look at the flow in this add-on and give us some advice of how we could improve things?
I send the message in the bug, sorry about that it would be better to have the discussion here.

Closing for now, let's revisit this if users get really confused with the popup
