Rapid Release is less of a packaged application, more of a "feed"
presentation.

Chrome lives on the always-on 'net, wants to be an operating system.

Mozilla wants to change/compete with that... but they ought to run
'parallel' systems, as is done with many significant changeovers... a
LongTerm Support release for those that need/choose it, besides the
rapid-release for security/competition currency. How about a year-date-
version LTS rollup release... continuously available to all, obviously
not auto-updated?

In ever greater rushing for change/currency, planning and parallel
operation is tending to be left behind... bad idea.
