Just a reminder for the future.

As per calendar, Firefox ESR 128 will be the only ESR being maintained.

Firefox 128 supports MAIN world in scripting.RegisteredContentScript. This simplifies uBOL's code base as the workaround specific to Firefox can then be removed.

The documentation page appears to not be up to date since I did test that the scriptlets are properly executing in MAIN world after removing the workaround.

They are just running out of time to determine what the extended of support for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 will involve by Moz://a. If the developers are not working on adding the removed if-s and errors specific to Windows 7, 8 and 8.1, then at most we will see 115.16.x-115.37.x releases with their use blocked on Windows 10 and 11 (at the installer level or even in the executable file "Firefox.exe").

The advantage may be the small percentage of people who want to continue using uBo Lite at Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 without switching to e.g. Vyvfox (aka R3dfox) or Luminafox.
