I'm filing this meta bug because the topic of GeckoView support for WebExtensions comes up often, but we don't know if or when we will support them in GeckoView and/or Fenix.
Raptor (performance testing web extension) requires the Runtime, Storage, Alarms, and Tabs APIs. Adding support for these would enable raptor and our performance test suite to run on GeckoView-based browsers.
