Comment:

 This is pointless because all of the firefox components that would be
 protected are exposed within the container as read-only files.

 The only time that anything in a container has write access to it's own
 components is when applying updates, which is done in a different
 container with no network access.  At this time, malicious MAR files with
 valid signatures are entirely beyond the threat model (Though see #22946).
