Comment (by tom):

 We will want to set browser.selfsupport.enabled to false to disable
 Normandy aka Shield aka Self Support aka Self Repair. To be safe we can
 also redirect browser.selfsupport.url

 We probably want to disable stuff under browser.uitour.

 I'm not sure how to get to it in 52, but in 53, the WebIDE auto-installs
 some extensions it downloads from Mozilla. Probably best to disable it via
 devtools.webide.enabled

 The Telemetry experiments features should be disabled (experiments.*)

 There is something called "Extensions Discovery" governed by
 extensions.getAddons.showPane

 Probably want to disable security.ssl.errorReporting

 There's something called 'Social' under social.* including the scary one
 social.remote-install.enabled
