All devtools bugs fixed between Firefox 36 and Firefox 37.

• display: contents is now activated by default (Firefox bug 1102374 and Firefox bug 1105369).

• The value <a rel="noreferrer"> now also works when the link is opened in new tab (Firefox bug 1031264).
• The '.' followed by the extension is now allowed in <input accept>: when used, a file selector filters with this given extension to be proposed to the user (Firefox bug 826176).

• The Map, Set, WeakMap and WeakSet constructors now ignore null iterable (Firefox bug 1092538).
• The Map, Set, WeakMap and WeakSet constructors now supports monkey-patched prototype.set or prototype.add (Firefox bug 804279).
• The Non-standard String.prototype.quote() method has been removed (Firefox bug 1103181).

  • The find() and findIndex() methods (Firefox bug 1078975).
  • The fill() method (Firefox bug 1113722).

• ES2015 Proxy enumerate trap is implemented (Firefox bug 783829).
• The configurable attribute of the Function.length property is now true per the ES2015 specification (Firefox bug 911142).
• The development of ParallelJS (PJS) has been discontinued due to the limited future prospects, little attention and code complexity. The experimental implementation that had been enabled only on the Nightly channel, including the Array.prototype.mapPar, filterPar and reducePar methods, has been completely removed.

• The StereoPannerNode Web Audio node has been implemented (Firefox bug 1100349).

  • The WebGL2RenderingContext.getBufferSubData() method has been implemented to provide access to Buffer Objects (Firefox bug 1048731).
• In keeping with the evolving WebRTC specification, we have deprecated RTCIceServer.url in favor of RTCIceServer.urls, which lets you specify more than one URL for a given ICE server.
• Some key names of KeyboardEvent.key are changed for conforming the latest DOM Level 3 Events spec. See the tables of KeyboardEvent.key values in MDN. The green cells are new values. And purple values are still unstable. Be careful if you use them (meta bug for these changes is Firefox bug 900372).
• The console interface is now working on ServiceWorker and SharedWorker. It was previously available but not working (Firefox bug 1058644).
• The value of KeyboardEvent.key was incorrectly being reported as "RomanCharacters" when the 英数 (Eisu) key was pressed. Now it correctly returns "Eisu".

No change.
