This is a very important improvement. Firefox lags behind other browsers (brave, opera) in this area https://privacytests.org/. Mozilla should be like Librewolf in this respect. Also, with the default settings, brave is a mile ahead of firefox.
We know that google, an advertising company, is a major source of income for mozilla, however mozilla should at least implement the feature and leave it disabled by default. Otherwise what is written in mozilla's manifesto (open free web) will remain just an unrealised good intention.
