Hi Chris FxOS allows Geolocation API to provide the geographical position of a user to web applications. The API can get location from multiple sources and the location callbacks are based on all available backend location services. (e.g. GPS, WiFi AP, cell towers ...)
Enabling this option* 'Ignore GPS locations' *would ignore the location callback from GPS. It means the device can only get location from network-based location service. This debugging option doesn't intend to disable GPS, all backend GPS functionality is intact, including A-GPS. (i.e. It wouldn't reduce power consumption.) Please refer to Bug 1056857 <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1056857> for more info.
