I'm sure you are aware that the 57 upgrade in November 2017 no longer supports FEBE. Are there any plans for a version that will be compatible?
Thanks

I doubt Mozilla will ever release APIs that allow access to user's bookmarks, passwords, cookies, etc. There is not even a way to write to a users filesystem, so backing up is impossible.
