Never really understood Mozilla's position on remote device access. Yes, it's a risk, essentially by definition. It's no less so (and in particular absolutely not helping your browser product or the web platform!) if you just punt and force everyone to use a proprietary iOS/Android/Windows app instead. Innovation happens on the physical side of the design wall too, you can't just put your head in the sand and figure someone else will solve it. That's how we got the walled app gardens in the first place. And just to make this concrete: QMK keyboards configure magically by pulling up a web page ("use.via") on the device. Lots of gadget-space open source hardware uses similar tricks. This is not an obscure or useless feature. And it's deeply sad that Firefox[1], in its senescent obsolescence, doesn't even want to pretend to play for a piece of that action. [1] The archetypical hacker's browser in its prime!
