 I created #19076, #19077 and #19078 for them.

 Actually, that is e10s unrelated. It is a debugging feature for graphics
 issues that is prefed off:
 https://wiki.mozilla.org/Platform/GFX/LayerScope. You need a special
 extension for viewing the LayerScope. And that extension is communicating
 with the browser over WebSockets. I think we are fine here.
