More concretely, it might allow an experience like the following:


 "Create a Firefox Account"
      |
      V
 "Choose what to sync"
      |
      |  <-- success at this point! "sync will begin momentarily" etc
      |
      V
 "You're ready to access your
  firefox on all your devices,  <-- stronger message about what you
  want us to email you some         can do right now, rather than
  download links?"                  what you'll be able to do at
      |                             conclusion of the setup process
      |
      V
 "Make Firefox Yours"
      |
      V
  ...etc...


(who needs lucidchart when you've got asciiart, amirite?)

Anyway, I don't want to get myself too carried away here, but it's
something to think about as you're discussing all the options with
growth/engagement/etc teams.  I've been pondering the technical and
security aspects of doing this for a while, and I think they can be
overcome if there's a compelling experience to be uncovered because of it.


  Cheers,
