A personas and its preview

There are 2 bugs on Personas 

A) Personas dialog does not save its size if it resized.

1- Open Personas dialogue via "Tools - Options - Personalization" then click on "Select Theme" button. "Select Firefox Theme" dialogue will be open.
2- Resize the dialogue then click on any personas or categories. The dialogue returns back its first size.

B) Personas preview a small part of the persona, but it looks like the left part of it.

1- Open Personas dialogue via "Tools - Options - Personalization" then click on "Select Theme" button. "Select Firefox Theme" dialogue will be open.
2- Past this link (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/sweety_cat/?src=featured) in the search box and click on Go button.
You will have a grey preview. But, the real personas has a cat on the right corner.
(I have added a screenshot sample to show them.) 

And, I have an enhancement request:

The Personas dialogue shows just 9 contents on categories and there is no way to load more personas. Also, there is no direct way to change this number. 

We maybe add a drop-down list near the categories box and will give users some more options. For example: 3,6,9,12,15 etc. 

IMO, adding a load-more option to the personas dialogue might be the best.

please create one bug for one problem. Don't need write about many problem in one bug.

Issue with limitation to 9 is known and reported. Before you put too much effort into improvements to this dialog you better think about an integration into the config tab. Otherwise, rather than storing the last size we better not allow resizing (that's the default in LibreOffice and defined in the HIG https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/PropertyDialog)

Muhammet made some changes regarding Personas and has plans for the future.

We better drop all Mozilla themes and introduce self-hosted extensions. See bug 123831. But keeping this open until it's implemented.

Firefox/Mozilla personas feature was removed as per ESC and Design Team decisions.
