Details

(Whiteboard: [esmification-timeline][addons-jira])

Attempting to convert the toolkit/mozapps/extensions/internal/XPI* modules to ES modules causes tests to fail, because the tests are unloading the modules:

https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/87ba454e5c68ff77dff9acb9d7b0b51d6df12d11/toolkit/mozapps/extensions/internal/AddonTestUtils.jsm#873-875

ES modules cannot be unloaded, so there is no direct relationship here.

This will need someone from the team to investigate why this is needed and alternatives for it.

I'm going to take this, and hopefully land in ESR 115 to make uplifting less painful later on.

I meant to self-assign bug 1836482. But this one is also important, but more involved...
