Did you want to add a relnote nomination for this bug?

Sure.

Release Note Request (optional, but appreciated)
[Why is this notable]: Having sound from an unknown source can be really jarring/confusing
[Affects Firefox for Android]: No
[Suggested wording]: You can now shush your browser from the address bar by typing "mute" (or "shush" or "sssh") and using the address bar quick action. This will mute all tabs currently playing sound, in all Firefox windows.
[Links (documentation, blog post, etc)]: n/a

If someone wants to make a quick video of this that might be neat, I'm not clever enough for that.
