I personally agree this is a worthwhile goal. The blog post talks about "tracking the status of everything in Firefox that is a potential time bomb and making sure that we don’t find ourselves in a situation where one goes off unexpectedly." I expect once that is done we'll be positioned to evaluate if and how we could support this.
