[just dev-b2g]

If it wasn't already clear from 
https://etherpad.mozilla.org/b2g-convergence-landing, we need to maintain all 
of the same platform changes on all branches from FF18 and up (mozilla-central, 
mozilla-aurora, mozilla-beta). There are a number of reasons why we are 
maintaining this process. To name a couple:

* we want web app developers to be able to target all versions of Firefox, 18 
and up, in the same way
* hunting down amorphous platform regressions that are inconsistent across 
versions is a hellish feat
* maintaining repositories (security fixes, stability fixes, etc.) when code 
changes are unnecessarily inconsistent from one to the next is just plain silly

This has always been the plan, and will continue to be. Thanks for reading.
