Is that the facility that legacy extensions can have defaults/preferences/defaults.js to declare their preferences?

In Thunderbird we're trying to keep legacy extensions working, currently by having |ac_add_options "MOZ_ALLOW_LEGACY_EXTENSIONS=1"| in the mozconfigs.

So are the components legacy extensions rely on slowly dismantled? So some will keep working and some will stop working?

If so, what is the replacement? Setting up the preference in JS on the fly in the add-on?
