Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [comment:7 mcs]:
 > It makes me a little nervous to include code like this even though it is
 pref'd off.  I guess it is no worse than a lot of other things.  But it
 looks like we could remove the RokuApp.jsm and SimpleServiceDiscovery.jsm
 files from our builds without breaking anything in the default situation
 (things will break if someone sets browser.casting.enabled = true and
 restarts their browser).

 > Opinions?
