1316987 - Improve handling of preferences for default branch and complex values

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Remote Protocol :: Marionette, defect)

Description

[Henrik Skupin [:whimboo][⌚️UTC+2]]

In Firefox Puppeteer we have advanced handling of preferences which includes handling of the default branch and also getting/setting values of different interfaces (necessary eg for localized content).

https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/testing/puppeteer/firefox/firefox_puppeteer/api/prefs.py

We would like to add this to Marionette to be able to get rid of the Puppeteer API module.
