I should remember to use this in the future for my small apps...

You're right:

/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/addons.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/chromeappsstore.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/content-prefs.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/cookies.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/downloads.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/extensions.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/formhistory.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/permissions.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/places.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/search.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/signons.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/urlclassifier3.sqlite
/home/myUser/.mozilla/firefox/pv079lxv.default/webappsstore.sqlite

Very interesting, I didn't knew that :-)

I'll try to do this in the future also... I just have to practice a bit 
more with the SQL commands, but now I can create, update, delete, query 
and I guess that's the most important things to know :-)

Thanks for your help and for providing interesting background info :-)
