Once custom formatters are stable enough, the experimental feature preference devtools.custom-formatters introduced in bug 1746830 needs to be removed again.

A little bit late for the 116 release, though maybe a note for it could still be added.

Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated)
[Why is this notable]: Custom formatters provide a way for websites to improve the display of JavaScript objects within the DevTools.
[Affects Firefox for Android]: no
[Suggested wording]: With custom formatters, websites can now define how to display specific JavaScript objects and functions within different parts of the DevTools. This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled via the Settings panel.
[Links (documentation, blog post, etc)]:
Documentation: https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/devtools-user/custom_formatters/index.html
Blog post (will go online later today): https://fxdx.dev/firefox-devtools-custom-object-formatters/

Added to the 116 release notes

Fantastic! Thanks a lot, Diana! One little nit. As this feature is part of the DevTools, maybe it should be moved to the "Developer" section?

My apologies, I thought I had added it but seems that field was empty. It is fixed now and it should appear in the next 20 minutes
