610712 - Allow for hiding old showfor selectors from the UI

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

Description

[Verdi [:verdi] Best to slack me]

We currently have articles written with showfor blocks for Fx 2. We'd like to retain support for old versions in the wiki markup so that users with later browsers won't see those blocks meant for Fx 2. 

We also want to be able to hide outdated Fx versions from the help with UI.

Please explain how articles like: https://master.support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Importing%20bookmarks%20and%20other%20data%20from%20SeaMonkey/edit
Will allow FF2 display

The Fx2 content will be supported in the backend but will never show up in the UI to the user.

Please add QA steps for verifying this if it does not show up in the UI, or add [qa-], thanks

You can verify this by adding {for fx3}some text{/for} to a document. The text shouldn't render in the document or preview, and FF3 isn't available in the Help With selector. This is what we mean by having support for fx3 in the backend but its not available in the UI.
