I didn't contact them. I believe Giuseppe (or someone else on this list) 
contacted them about creating a list of libre add-ons before the 
GNUzilla list came to be. Not much cooperation IIRC.

Today I found the AMO review process [1] and submission criteria [2]. 
Not much in there related to software freedom other than that you should 
be diligent about copyright (some of the add-on code I've seen makes me 
wonder how thorough the review process is), pick a license and be able 
to show source code of blobs to reviewers. The "treat the user 
respectfully" requirement seems to have nothing to do with software freedom.
