Our current Firefox migrator (used for a Firefox Refresh) just copies files
so wouldn't be suitable for a downgrade scenario as it could introduce
problems that we're trying to avoid with this approach. We could rewrite it
to be more like other migrators where it would read individual records from
Dave could there be a way/option to migrate safe data to the new profile
similar to what we do with a refresh?

Not currently no.

No - sync is too complicated for a 15 minute test.

No… although you could turn sync off again after the initial sync is complete,
I guess.

Can sharing with firefox sync be done just one way?

Michael,
Should be able to just enable sync in each copy of Firefox and sync the items
you need across profiles that way. Is that good enough?

Is there a way migrate data from one profile to another? We occasionally
run user tests and ask people to install beta or nightly so that they can
test a feature with their current data (bookmarks, history, preferences,
etc). Will Firefox show up in the import wizard?
Thanks,
Michael

Can firefox be setup to make profile backups before each update? I
certainly wouldn't like having a surprise update to the degree of firefox
57 (which thankfully I was ready for) and then lose everything I had setup
just because firefox updated.
