have permission to use the official firefox branding.
Fur purposes of documentation the statement of @sylvestre:

> @garbas shared with me the list of patches applied for the Nix package.
> As they are just for portability and tiny modifications, they don't
> alter the experience of the product. In parallel, Rok also shared the
> build options. They seem good (even if I cannot judge the quality of the
> packaging of the underlying dependencies like sqlite, png, etc).
> Therefor, as long as you keep the patch queue sane and you don't alter
> the experience of Firefox users, you won't have any issues using the
> official branding.
