OK to uplift. This should land for 59 beta 11.

Shouldn't the FF59 developer release notes mention this change (it broke my web apps) ?

Sure but then you just need the same shim that you already need to support Chrome.
Not the same shim, an updated one because parts of the old API remain, unlike in Chrome.

This is why breaking changes would be appreciated in the release notes and more than three weeks before release.
