 In short: Mozilla might decide that you need a newer version of mozilla-
 build to build the latest Firefox.
 They might decide that it should contain Python 3.x and/or Wix >= 3.6,
 which might break stuff for us.

 To be honest, considering the update frequency and the updates it
 contains, I think it will break less than once a year.
 Add to that that it's trivial to fix by downloading and moving the dep.

 Considering that the probability of breaks happening when this is added is
 non-zero I though it should be noted.
