// ALL CHANGES TO THIS LIST MUST HAVE REVIEW FROM A WEBDRIVER PEER!
//
// Preferences are set for automation on startup, unless
// remote.prefs.recommended has been set to false.
//
// Note: Clients do not always use the latest version of the application. As
// such backward compatibility has to be ensured at least for the last three
// releases.

// INSTRUCTIONS TO ADD A NEW PREFERENCE
//
// Preferences for remote control and automation can be set from several entry
// points:
// - remote/shared/RecommendedPreferences.sys.mjs
// - remote/test/puppeteer/packages/browsers/src/browser-data/firefox.ts
// - testing/geckodriver/src/prefs.rs
// - testing/marionette/client/marionette_driver/geckoinstance.py
//
// The preferences in `firefox.ts`, `prefs.rs` and `geckoinstance.py`
// will be applied before the application starts, and should typically be used
// for preferences which cannot be updated during the lifetime of the application.
//
// The preferences in `RecommendedPreferences.sys.mjs` are applied after
// the application has started, which means that the application must apply this
// change dynamically and behave correctly. Note that you can also define
// protocol specific preferences (CDP, WebDriver, ...) which are merged with the
// COMMON_PREFERENCES from `RecommendedPreferences.sys.mjs`.
//
// Additionally, users relying on the Marionette Python client (ie. using
// geckoinstance.py) set `remote.prefs.recommended = false`. This means that
// preferences from `RecommendedPreferences.sys.mjs` are not applied and have to
// be added to the list of preferences in that Python file. Note that there are
// several lists of preferences, either common or specific to a given application
// (Firefox Desktop, Fennec, Thunderbird).
//
// Depending on how users interact with the Remote Agent, they will use different
// combinations of preferences. So it's important to update the preferences files
// so that all users have the proper preferences.
//
// When adding a new preference, follow this guide to decide where to add it:
// - Add the preference to `geckoinstance.py`
// - If the preference has to be set before startup:
//   - Add the preference to `prefs.rs`
//   - Add the preference `browser-data/firefox.ts` in the puppeteer folder
//   - Create a PR to upstream the change on `browser-data/firefox.ts` to puppeteer
// - Otherwise, if the preference can be set after startup:
//   - Add the preference to `RecommendedPreferences.sys.mjs`
