Olli, Is a note in our 134 release notes needed for the activation of this feature? Thanks

[Olli Pettay [:smaug][[e-mail]]]

Yeah, a note would be good. Similar to the note which was added for Nightly in bug 1911736

Note added to the 134 nightly notes with this wording based on what we used for 133:

Firefox follows now the model HTML specification for transient user activation more closely. This change makes popup blocking less strict in cases where previous versions of Firefox were overly aggressive, reducing erroneous blocking prompts.

I am keeping the relnote flag request open until we ship it in our final build. Thanks

FYI MDN doesn't plan any docs for work for this - it won't change what developers do.
