Hi. screen.orientation.lock() is used on some sites such as YouTube to lock the screen orientation to landscape/portrait. This API was turned on Fennec (Former Firefox for Android). But when we moved to Fenix, this became broken then disabled.
Cathy Lu (:calu) and I have re-implemented this API for Fenix/GeckoView and Windows (tablet mode only due to Windows API limitation), and fixed a lot of spec and compat issues. So I will turn on this on Nightly for testing.
