Jim, I have just jumped to FireFox ESR as a portable app, Not because I was forced to, to use tiddlyfox but because most of my preferred plugins just turned legacy. As much as I would like to keep using the latest version of Firefox the current direction may not be the best. If additional security is to be applied, there should always be ways to retain functionality, this is not occurring in current releases, the ability to call the browser "the universal client" is fading.
Using a portable app, lets you keep the latest version installed if required, In time I expect we will have more answers.
