 Thanks. I think we should wait a bit until it hits your release channel
 until we figured out what is causing #23724. Could you have a look at that
 one, too? It seems to me there are things broken in vanilla Firefox 52 ESR
 as well when the update happens. I am not sure yet whether it is a bad as
 in Tor Browser but there are similar error messages like

 that make me nervous. For instance one visible thing is that the NoScript
 icon gets suddenly moved to the right side of the toolbar, a thing we can
 observe in Tor Browser as well.
