See summary. It's an idea that spun out of a meeting I was in today. Bug 1336230 added the ability to do this.
I haven't tested this yet - need to test it on my Windows box.
To be clear, for the people following along, the animation I'm referring to is the OS animation when windows open. Windows has had these for a while, and OS X got them with Lion, I believe. This has nothing to do with the in-browser animations.
Flags: qe-verify?
Priority: -- → P2
For testing the differences between the two modes, might be useful to tie this to a pref.

Whoops - indeed, leftovers. I should probably have done a self-review. :/ > {private: true} will give you *only* private windows. I believe you want all windows here? Ah, good catch! I thought that meant to _include_ private windows. Thank you!

Wouldn't using Services.wm.getMostRecentWindow("navigator:browser") be enough here for the simple check we are doing?

Yeah, I agree that'd be better. New patch coming up, thanks!

The line for the 'private' flag seems similarly broken.

Oh holy smokes, good eyes! Thanks for catching that!

QA Contact: adrian.florinescu
QE notes: Prior to this patch, on Windows and OS X, there'd be a brief window animation when opening the initial browser window. This patch suppresses that animation, so we get the initial window consuming its final space on the screen immediately without any transitions. For verifying this bug, I'd start the browser and ensure the initial window does not have the animation on OS X and Windows. It might be worth testing the following additional scenarios: 1) Firefox is started by clicking on a link in another application 2) Firefox is started from the command line Basically, variations on how Firefox can start. They should all suppress that initial window.

Enviroments: Windows 8.1 x64, Windows 10 x64, Mac OSX 10.12 Prior to verifying and regression testing I reproduced the animation with a Nightly build from 05.15 on target OSes. test areas: -open from command line -open from Skype, facebook, different browser (or different FF channel) -open with parameters; No visible regressions, so marking this as verified for 55.0b9 20170713130618 and 57.0a1 20170802100302.
