Well, I changed my mind and decided to allow the update. It didn't
disable any of my extensions, so that's good. It left my tab bar's
position alone (I like mine right above the website content), so that
was also good.

However, it did round the corners of tabs and fields, but that wasn't as
big an issue as I expected.

Mozilla has "improved" containers, but that's a feature I find
completely useless.

I expect that, as usual with a non-decimal update, there will be some
bugs that will be corrected in a decimal update. However, at this point
I haven't experienced any.
