As part of "customizable select", all browsers have needed to make changes to 
the HTML parser in order to drop special modes around parsing `<select>` 
elements and its children. We've had this behaviour _flagged_ in nightly for a 
release cycle.

I've landed https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D295502 as part of the 153 
train, which enables the new parser modes by default. This is a prerequisite 
for supporting new elements such as `<selectedcontent>` inside of `<select>`, 
as well as the new `appearance:base` mode for `<select>`. I'll be following up 
by cleaning up the feature flag. 

As usual, if any issues arise, please let the DOM team know and we can roll 
this back. We do not anticipate issues given the 152 nightly cycle had this 
unflagged, but this means that from 153 this will be on in release channels. 

If anyone has any concerns please let me know!

Happy browsing.
