The most likely reason I might have to disable e10s has little to do with
Firebug. I have a suspicion e10s is going to disable other development
extensions I find critical. I hope I'm wrong; we'll see.

Especially, if David Ficano's Dafizilla ViewSourceWith stops working --
which seems quite possible, since it's not under very active development --
I will stop moving forward. (Unless I find a substitute, which I haven't
yet.)

Or if Chris Pederick's Web Developer Toolbar stops working. Or ColorZilla.
Or LinkVisitor. Or the Empty Cache Button. Or Tile Tabs. Or NoSquint. Or
TabMixPlus. Or various other things I use. If the limitations of Firefox
extensions become similar to the limitations of Chrome extensions -- which,
though numerous, are crippled, feeble things, in my opinion -- then I have
no reason to stay with Firefox moving forward at all. Chrome is a better
browser in general, except for the interface and (especially) the
extensions ecosystem, something that the Firefox developer team is in
denial about.

The Firebug-dialog conversation I referenced (which I can no long find
since I criticized it, funny) was *all* about marketing psychology -- how
to put a positive spin on the changes. That's just smoke.

Even the dialog your latest blog link shows -- which looks like the
original, not the suggested "marketing" revisions, if I remember correctly
-- is silent on specifically *how* someone would turn off e10s; whether
they could turn it off after letting it run experimentally for a while
(revert) and how; *how long* they could keep it off for before new FF
versions prevent this; and so on. What I'd really like is a tree chart with
compatibilities and action items (including specific instructions) at each
decision point (typically those would be version numbers).

This stuff is too important to many of us for vagueness and brief
optimistic descriptions.
