Why not shipping both versions (dev-edition is not installed by
default) of Firefox and make the packaged addons depending on the
developer edition?
So if someone needs packaged addons or wants bleeding edge features he
could replace stable Firefox with the developer edition.
IMHO this would be a suitable solution.
More work for someone to do? If someone wants to do that, OK, but
otherwise I think the ESR version is more appropriate balance between
stable and current. Otherwise just get binaries of the developer
version from Mozilla?
