>Description:
- Enabling widevine by default poses a security risk, see:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1295853
- Using non-standard audio options (alsa, pulseaudio), audio doesn't work as-is, and requires setup. With no explanation for how to set it up (e.g. MESSAGE) people just assume it doesn't work.
Worse still, until martin's commit, using the default ALSA on firefox for playing audio would crash immediately.
