Please can you confirm the position regarding Silverlight support in 52 ESR?

I had understood from your 23rd Feb post that 52 ESR would support all NPAPI plugins though into 2018, including Silverlight.

If you are now planning to drop support for all but Flash, please can I ask you to reconsider for Silverlight too?  Apple have included support for Silverlight in Safari 10 and we have a large userbase Silverlight application for which we would hate to lose Firefox support this early.

The 52 ESR release would be a great way to provide this extended transition time for organisations still dependent on Silverlight. 

Thanks,
John
