What's the difference between that and Firefox outright shipping with a DRM module, though?
I do get the ideological objection to not wanting to support DRM, although I don't think that's the battle that Mozilla should pick right now. But extra clicks probably wouldn't make anybody who does happy, while inconveniencing most other users.
It is ideological, not logical in my opinion.
And what Mozilla should do right now is rather reemploy the servo team(and more), to actually build a innovative browser again.
I agree Mozilla should be building browsers, supporting open source and being active on the committees.
But I wouldn't choose DRM as the hill to die on. There's probably better examples of things Mozilla did wrong.
I think if that click was right at netflix and a ff restart away from working, then maybe yes. But most people would just switch browsers, before looking for that patch.
