So I will concede that it is time to bury all the XUL/XPCom misgivings. We now need to rededicate ourselves to the same extensible vision using the new stack.

- danShumway 6y agoI think we need some kind of champion to make that point -- to prove that the extensible vision we did have and lost is still worth pursuing. But that's not really a useful thing for me to say, because I have no idea where we can go to get that champion, and I'm at least low-key worried about Mozilla's ability and willingness to be that champion. But agreed. I think it's about more than just XUL vs webExtensions, I think it's a broad tech/cultural issue about making the case that end-user-accessible control and customization is important.
