With macOS 10.15 (Catalina), Apple began requiring all programs to be notarised.
Notarisation is checked when the program starts by looking for the com.apple.quarantine attribute. See bug 1588081 comment #18 for more details. This attribute is only set when another notarised program such as Firefox downloads arbitrary programs from the internet. It is not set when the program is downloaded via other means, e.g. with curl(1) or wget(1).
We should explain this in the geckodriver usage documentation.

The extra heading causes some exposure problems with the way
the sidebar menu collapses docs under a certain hierarchy depth.
Since the user documentation is more important than the developer
documentation, it makes sense not to collapse it.
