Not enabling this in bug 1457224 or bug 147357 was an oversight.  Lets turn it on now.

This issue is verified as fixed on Fennec 64.0a1(20180917100144) under Android 8.0.0

The preference ‘extensions.webextensions.background-delayed-startup’ is set to true by default.

I used uBlock Origin on a page with ads, and at the startup of the Fennec, the ads from the current page that was loading, were blocked.

Please see the attached screenshot.
