Support for untrusted/self-signed certificates has been added via bug 1103196 and will be available starting with Firefox 52.

Thank You for the information.

As of now, the current stable version of Firefox is 51.1.0 - https://download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net/pub/firefox/releases/50.1.0/.

It would be great if you can let me know the approximate GA date for Firefox 52. This would help me to make some decisions for upgrade activity.

Firefox 52 will be released on 2017-03-07. If you want to start testing earlier you could use a beta version which should be available soon after the tree merges on 2017-01-24.
