Comment:

 The reality is that if Mozilla doesn't support cert pinning for arbitrary
 requests (beyond just updates+addons: see
 https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Features/CA_pinning_functionality), I'm
 not going to implement this. Until that point, our priority is not "major"
 for this ticket.

 If you feel otherwise, you must write a patch to implement pinning before
 arguing over the priority of this ticket, or point me to the actual
 Firefox pinning implementation.
