should add Flash to an exception. (In short: https://www.fxsitecompat.com

> I have a hard time following you. First: The bug you are alluding to
landed in Firefox 50 and this is unrelated to anything we ship in ESR45.
Second and more important: that change is not even active due to issues
Mozilla found. See the updates on the site you linked to and
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1296004.
You have already changed {{{plugin.state.flash}}} the way Mozilla is
trying to change in FF50, but still unsuccessful, because of the reasons
which also affect TBB.
