As of bug 1957934 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?
id=1957934> (30 April 2025, yes it's late...) we got new autogenerated
forward declarations headers. From now on if you have an interface or
dictionary like:
// foo.webidl
interface Foo {};
dictionary FooDict {};
Then you get forward declaration for Foo and FooDict in mozilla/dom/
FooFwd.h.
this is great! I take this opportunity to remind everybody that we have an `includehell` [1] bug where we gather all bugs about minimizing unnecessary header inclusions. If you're touching code pulling in lots of headers consider checking if you can prune some stuff or replace them with forward declarations, the compilation time benefits are worth it.
