</I>Most users don't know what to do with tarball. They only know that their
browser doesn't have latest promoted changes. And that means
distribution is doing something wrong for them.
We were complaining because extensions didn't work. I don't know how
many plugins there were with problems. Can't remember any myself.
Nonbinary extensions are now compatible by default, so one problem less.
ESR means QA testing anyway. It's only bugfixes but that doesn't mean
you can update w/o testing.
