Comment (by gk):

 Here come my notes for Firefox 61-67 (inclusive) dev-doc reviews:

 The developer docs can be found at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
 US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox/Releases/XX (Where "XX" is the actual Firefox
 version to be investigated).

 There was nothing concerning for Firefox 61 and 62.

 For Firefox 63 we have the Media Capabilities API
 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1409664) which we addressed
 in #13543. I made a note on #16678 as changes might affect this bug and
 filed an investigated #31954. I skimmed
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1349799 and think the WebGL
 power preference in this bug is not a problem for us.

 Nothing found for Firefox 64.

 There are some items for Firefox 65: RelativeTimeFormat
 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1504334) which got
 investigated in #31985. Then we have the Streams API (#31997), Storage
 Access API (#32002) and new WebGL extensions (#32013)

 Nothing found for Firefox 66.

 New WebGL extension in Firefox 67. I opened #32057 and investigated the
 new feature.

 All in all I think we are not in bad shape here.
