Dear Mozilla,
Please continue your work on this. It's one of the lowest-cost, highest-leveraged points of counterbalance against Facebook's continued attempts to dominate the platforms of the future. In addition, there are numerous monetization opportunities that naturally arise from this effort, so if you stick with it, other Mozilla efforts will be buoyed by its success.
