We really need to get the vanilla redirect done at least, since,
ironically, "mxr.mozilla.org" is even referenced in the code base!

https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?q=mxr.mozilla.org&redirect=false

A lot of code (including add-ons) out there also rely on MXR URL to fetch,
for example, the public suffix list.

https://github.com/search?q=https%3A%2F%2Fmxr.mozilla.org%2Fmozilla-central%2Fsource%2Fnetwerk%2Fdns%2Feffective_tld_names.dat&ref=searchresults&type=Code&utf8=%E2%9C%93

We would not be able to update these code effectively.

(Yes, I know the right URL to hit should be
https://publicsuffix.org/list/public_suffix_list.dat )
