Yeah, --e10s enables e10s in the browser for mochitest-chrome.  However,
the test harness is a .xul file opened in a tab, and that runs that tab as
non-remote, so for most tests it ends up testing the same thing as not
using --e10s. Other tabs and/or windows opened manually by the test would
be remote.
