While it's nice to see the progress being made here, it's a little bit.. what's the word here? Strange? Disheartening? Annoying? Infuriating?

..to see long-standing issues being ignored or back-burnered in the march to add all the new features. Duplicate SSL certs still cause sites to be unviewable without stupid and security-breaking workarounds that are not necessary in other browsers, for nearly 7 years now[1], making the browser completely unsuited to enterprise administration uses. One misbehaving tab can still kill your entire session. I understand that they're working on this with the electrolysis project, but end of 2015 goal?[2] I don't mean to be overly snarky here, but congratulations on getting to where Chrome/ium was back in 2008.

I seriously question how the priorities are being decided at Mozilla. These are basic usability things that were solved in other browsers a long time ago.
