When Mozilla produces Wayland/X11 builds we need to make sure the X11 is the default backend unless it's overridden by user choice.

We need to also check Gtk+ version and enabled wayland backend for recent enough Gtk+ versions.

What is the reason this is not handled automatically as with all gtk apps and has to default to X11??

The wayland port is not yet stable enough for wide audience as Firefox uses Wayland/Gtk+ differently that a standard Gtk+ application. The functionality needs to be tested first, mainly an async rendering from compositor thread. Also the Wayland does not work well with WebRenderer.
There is a "problem" though with setting the env var globally. Thunderbird doesn't start.
