Thanks for your feedback everyone. Most of the people who replied both here and off-list agreed that foreground should be the default, so I posted a patch on bug 863754 to do that when Firefox is launched using mach. I encourage somebody to take the time and modify Firefox itself to do that too!

Cheers,
Ehsan

I think the default behavior should stay as it is.
But I suggest having the mach script read a setting (from mozconfig or
elsewhere) to decide which way to launch Firefox.
This should satisfy all developers.

If we decide that foreground should be the default, we will definitely add a 
-background option to override it.

Cheers,
