Again, the reason we don't carry non-upstream patches in Firefox has
nothing to do with the branding issue. It's because we don't have the
resources to maintain non-upstream patches in Firefox.
Nonsense.
* Whenever somebody complains about the Firefox maintainers rejecting non-
upstream patches, they give the trademarks as the reason.
* Whenever somebody complains about the branding, they claim it doesn't
matter because we aren't carrying non-upstream patches anyway.
That's a very circular argument. Please don't fall for it.
There are some very concrete practical reasons for shipping some non-
upstream patches, unbundling libraries is one of those.
