Writing front-end JS code for Firefox is generally a painful experience:
terrible error messages, often no filename or line number information, or
even no output at all. But I think we should be making things better, not
worse. Remove features like this takes us in the wrong direction. If the
undefined property warning is broken, we should fix it.
I don't know if Firefox front-end developers typically use debug builds,
but I see many warnings in front-end JS when I run debug builds. If
extraWarnings are useful, they could be enabled for Nightly release
builds (specifically to aid Firefox developers) instead of just debug
builds.
