+To me it's a mostly version numbering problem.
+For FF itself, there are some feature updates, but only a few, which Mozilla says are 
+thoroughly tested.
+Complementory modules are automatically updated, if they don't use any features that 
+have changed.
+If they do, the module is disabled the first time FF is run after the update.
+The developers of these modules are notified by email, including information on the 
+affected features and how to correct.
+If one is using one of the disabled modules, that could presumably require reverting.
+The biggest problem is immediately ending security support for older versions.  If one 
+is using a module which had been disabled in the latest release.
+
+Glad I'm using Seamonkey.  They're not changing their release policy.
+They also don't need as many external modules, as more functions are integrated.
