Comment (by gacar):

 I guess TBB should return the same (and the most common) value for
 everyone, which would be `landscape-primary`.

 It seems `Screen.orientation` is still behind a moz- prefix in ESR31 and
 could be easily patched: [https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-
 esr31/source/dom/base/nsScreen.cpp#166 `nsScreen::mozOrientation`].
