I've been looking into Firefox crash data to learn which crashes are
related to extensions, plugins, and libraries that hook in to
Firefox in other ways: http://dbaron.org/mozilla/topcrash-modules
One of the reports I've generated lists addons that appear
correlated with particular crash signatures. This report contains
things like:

PR_EnumerateAddrInfo|EXC_BAD_ACCESS / KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (93 crashes)
100% (93/93) vs. 2% (301/18510) {73a6fe31-595d-460b-a920-fcc0f8843232}

which says that for the crash with signature "PR_EnumerateAddrInfo",
100% of the crashes had that addon installed, but for all crashes,
only 2% had that addon installed. This suggests that the crash is
probably related to that addon.


I'm pretty sure AMO has the data mapping extension IDs to something
significantly more useful (since I'd think it's needed for the addon
update mechanism). Is there either a list or an API that I could
use that would let me map "{73a6fe31-595d-460b-a920-fcc0f8843232}"
to either "https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722" or
"NoScript" so that I could make this report more useful?

There's no API for GUID lookups yet, but I can send you a CSV of the
needed data tomorrow.
