General Gecko:

<A title=/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/ECMAScript_6_support_in_Mozilla href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/ECMAScript_6_support_in_Mozilla">EcmaScript 6 (Harmony) implementation continues!

DOM/API

Firefox OS-specific:

• Multi-SIM support landed in Firefox OS (Dual-SIM-Dual-Standby or DSDS). navigator.mozMobileConnection becomes an array of MozMobileConnection instances, i.e. navigator.mozMobileConnections.  The privileged subset of this API can be used to detect MCC (country) and MNC (carrier), like in this snippet.

• The two methods CanvasRenderingContext2D.drawSystemFocusRing() and CanvasRenderingContext2D.drawCustomFocusRing() have been implemented. The preference canvas.focusring.enabled must be set to true to activate both (bug 540456).

• The following attributes have been added to NavigatorID: appCodeName and product (bug 925847).

• Support for the two setRange() methods on the HTMLInputElement interface has been added (bug 850364).

• Event.isTrusted() is now unforgeable (bug 637248).

• The Navigator.vibrate() method has been adapted to match the final specification: It now returns false when the list is too long or has too large entries, instead of throwing (bug 884935).

• As part of the ongoing effort to standardize global objects, the non-standard stylesheet change event interfaces, including StyleRuleChangeEvent, StyleSheetApplicableStateChangeEvent and StyleSheetChangeEvent, are no longer available from Web content. The CSSGroupRuleRuleList interface, the implementation detail of CSSRuleList, has also been removed (bug 872934 and bug 916871).
