This is very cool, I've been waiting for this for a long time!

I see that existing tests are now skipped by default on b2g, e.g.:

https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/devtools/server/tests/mochitest/chrome.ini#2

Is this because nobody has tested whether they work yet, or is it because
they are not working on b2g as they are written? If the latter, do you have
any insights on what needs to change?

Thanks,
Panos
