I believe Firefox Dev edition allows you to disable the signing requirement[0]. I do wish the requirements around signing were less stringent, but I'm fine using Dev Edition as a daily driver for now.

But then you're using the beta channel instead of the stable channel. It's great that you're fine with that, but everyone shouldn't have to. At the absolute least, Mozilla should make Unbranded auto-update.

  I've been using FF nightly - the most untested version, hot off of git - for two years and have yet to encounter a single bug which I could not reproduce in normal FF (mainly rare crashes on certain sites some of the time).

    With all respect, I think that Mozilla has a lot more testers than just one person. If the beta channel (or nightly) was truly bug free, it would be turned into the release channel. In other words, there is presumably a reason the release channel exists. As long as it does, the desire to use the release version alongside unsigned extensions is reasonable, and there should be a supported pathway.
