Hello,

Are there plans to package a version of Firefox 44 that lets you disable
extension signature checking?

Thank you!  I was tempted to reopen it, but it looks like the general
consensus is that an AUR package will be submitted.

It looks like sticking to upstream trumps user-centric in this case.
(Although I guess building from AUR is a fair substitute for
user-centric.)

It's a real bummer that a bunch of users (myself included) will be
forced to compile Firefox on each release.  I really hope we can
eventually get an abrowser or firefox-nobranding (or maybe even
palemoon) into the repos.

What about an AUR-package with a pre-compiled binary? Sure I have to
trust the maintainer. But I also have to with a source-package since I
won't check the sources with each release ;)
