To edit a Mozilla profile's prefs.js file successfully requires the app be 
closed
and the additions be placed in alphabetical order. Mozilla apps rewrite the file
with every use, so you cannot expect random changes to stick. Those you wish
guaranteed to persist must be written to user.js, which you must create and 
manage
all by yourself instead. Mozilla apps treat user.js as a readonly file to be 
read
at each startup.
