Did Mozilla ever consider splitting Gecko from M-C? I would
believe if it was in a separate branch it would be much easier
to stay in sync.

I think that Postbox has basically just said that users don't care
that much about security updates, so neither do they. I don't
think that they do them, or at least if they do only a few.
Security updates are like a religion at Mozilla, and yet the lack
of pushback to Postbox on this issue shows that users are not that
concerned. Not that we should drop our religion, just saying that
if we want to be open to all options, we should at least ask
"Maybe security updates are not as important as we think that
they are?" BenB, I only said as the question, I am not implying
that I know the answer.

I still hold to my estimates from a few months ago. That is, TB 45
and 52 will ship in sync with the Mozilla esr versions. After that
(59?) we will be on a fork of m-c, and probably can only maintain
that with security updates for a year at best. But that is of
course a wild estimate.
