Actual results: Firefox animates its visual controls: menus fade and slide, etc. Expected results: Firefox should respect my OS-level preferences and not animate things like that. (Having its own internal animation settings is not good enough. My OS settings need to take precedence.)

Brian, is this something we can do now with prefers-reduced-motion / bug 1365045 landed?

Yes, it sure is! (Thanks to Hiro!) We've already started using it DevTools (e.g. bug 1460862 and bug 1480149). It works on Windows and Linux but Mac support is blocked on upgrading the OSX SDK we build against.
