:smaug could you consider nominating this for a release note? (Process info)
We could include it in the nightly only release notes.

Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated): Nightly only release note telling that user activation detection changes and popup blocking may be less strict in some cases, when it has been overly strict.
[Why is this notable]: This should help in certain cases when Firefox has been traditionally more (and overly) strict with popup blocking than other browsers. This should lead to fewer erroneous popup blocking prompts.
[Affects Firefox for Android]: Yes
[Suggested wording]: Firefox follows now more closely the model HTML specification has for transient user activation. [1]
[Links (documentation, blog post, etc)]:

[1] this is a bit hard to say precisely since HTML spec certain issues around this topic.
