[Mozilla Enterprise] Firefox 67.0 changes result in much head-banging

[Bardo Wolf]

It would be helpfull if


1) "Dedicated profiles per Firefox installation"  / "Profile per 
Install" will be turned off for Firefox ESR

2) Same for "Downgrade Protection" (turned off for Firefox ESR).

Kind regards,
Bardo Wolf
