TBD, should we allow a11y users on linux to use e10s.

Currently we are tracking a few bugs that are platform agnostic or linux specific - 

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Electrolysis/Accessibility#Bug_Lists

If these block then we should turn a11y + e10s off on 48 and not roll out until they are fixed. On the other hand you might want to use linux on release as a canary test, not sure.

David, what's the plan here? I can get a patch up on 48 pretty easily that turn e10s off for linux users.

I spoke with Trevor yesterday. We should not ship a11y + e10s on Linux in 48. Let's try for 49/50.
