Thanks Jonas for introducing the Mulet!

The meta bug to track Mulet's development is
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=961745
I'm trying to post a new comment every time there is a major update in this
bug.

I have many patches, most of them are too hacky to be landed as-is, in a
personal git branch over here:
  https://github.com/ochameau/mozilla-central/tree/mulet
(For now, you have to build Firefox target with --enable-mulet option in
your mozconfig, and you need to pass a gaia profile when running firefox)

Our current challenge is to figure out how to build such mixed up species,
any build system tip is welcomed on
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=961745

Otherwise, I see many over-expectation about the Mulet.
The Mulet is only about merging b2g desktop and Firefox.
So that it shouldn't introduce anything new from either b2g desktop or
Firefox.
We won't be running more "device code" (like APZ, widget code,...) than b2g
desktop.
Actually, ensuring that we run more "device code" doesn't depend of the
Mulet.
You can already improve that right into b2g desktop and the Mulet
should automatically benefit from it.
So if anyone is willing to jump on the "improve our desktop environment"
train,
please feel free to contribute without waiting for the Mulet!
Anything that can make our desktop runtime act like our device runtime
is a big win for contributors, gaia developers and automatic testing!
