It's a seamonkey specific extension. Temporary parked here:

Brings Firefox's sidebar extension support to Seamonkey.

I think you mean Gecko 1.7 - Firefox 1.5 is Gecko 1.8 after all.
And I've promised several people that I'll maintain the Flashblock
1.3 branch as long as possible - fortunately I cleverly didn't
define "possible", so that leaves me an out :-).

But I get your point. I've tried to get xSidebar working in Moz
Suite as well as Seamonkey, but the codebase has diverged too
much and behaviour under Moz 1.7.x is rather unstable so although
this extension *will* install and work, I'm not announcing this.
