Pinning firefox in an unattended-upgrades compatible manner works
perfectly fine as:

Package: firefox
Pin: origin packages.mozilla.org
Pin-Priority: 1000

Package: firefox
Pin: origin *
Pin-Priority: -1

There's no need to allow all origins, you just need to pin in a manner
compatible with the design.

Please keep in mind that this is a hyper complex problem space and there
are no straightforward solutions.

Given that this has a straightforward workaround, addressing this is not
a concern and we need to focus our efforts on building out the
foundations in apt instead which I'm sure will eventually render that
workaround irrelevant. At this point however, it is not computationally
feasible.
