And these are the same thing as scalar metrics? To be precise: it's not adding their metrics to _Glean_, but adding them to _Gecko_ so that Glean can expose them. [Environment]() data from Desktop pings is just a bunch of scalar metrics that are not scalars yet. That's why we need teams to add Scalars. But we [have docs for that, too](https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/toolkit/components/telemetry/start/report-gecko-telemetry-in-glean.html#reporting-a-scalar), with an example.

Should I reach out to other Gecko teams and ask them to start instrumenting their streaming and scalar metrics to be collected in GeckoView? There's these bunch of scalars/environment that are GFX related (from the usual spreadsheet): - gfx_display_count - gfx_display_h - gfx_display_v - gfx_adapter - gfx_compositor - gfx_status_webrender - gfx_status_headless It would be great if somebody from the GFX team could add the related scalars for them.
