Consensus check: Asking the Unicode Technical Committee to revert their decision to change the preferred UTF-8 error handling

(If you don't care about the details of UTF-8 error handling, it's safe to stop reading.) In reference to https://hsivonen.fi/broken-utf-8/ , I think it would be appropriate to submit that post to the Unicode Consortium with a cover note asking the Unicode Technical Committee to revert their decis

Re: Consensus check: Asking the Unicode Technical Committee to revert their decision to change the preferred UTF-8 error handling

Intent to unship: window.showModalDialog

Hey all, 3 years ago (!) sicking commented in bug 981796 [1] that we were removing window.showModalDialog. The following year, I wrote a patch to disable it via a pref at the same time as pushing some telemetry to try to track usage. We saw more usage than we were hoping, so we held off on turning
