We should let people experiment with modules. Hopefully we can actually ship milestone 0 soon. If CORS is the last thing blocking that I would suggest shipping with CORS first. Oh and look at what Safari and possibly Chrome are implementing.
Worth sending an "intent to experiment" or something, possibly. I'm not seeing an obvious bug on the CORS thing in the dep tree of bug 568953. Is that filed?

The current plan is to enable this behind a pref. This will allow easier testing with web platform tests too.

I sent an "Intent to implement" to dev.platform a few weeks ago: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.platform/dr67sITwva8
Patch to enable modules with dom.moduleScripts.enabled pref.

I'm not sure how slow GetBool() itself is.

GetBool is mostly a hashtable lookup and a bunch of method calls. But yes, using a bool var cache here would be much better.
Also, no need for that "mozilla::" noise in this file.
Great, I'll use that then.

I've added a note about this to our Experimental features page: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox/Experimental_features I've removed the mention that had been added to the Fx54 release notes, as it is not usually our policy to mention features there until they are enabled by default, afaiu. Let me know if that looks OK.
