Looks like the F13 build got karma quickly enough to land directly in stable 
after all, the F12 build, on the other hand, was stuck in testing for 2 days 
before finally making it out to stable. Yet another blatant example of 
failure of the Update Acceptance Criteria, needlessly exposing our users to 
critical vulnerabilities.

(And no, by giving yet another special exception to Firefox wouldn't be a 
solution. ;-) This problem can hit any other app as well.)
