I think I am not convinced. Care to elaborate on that point in #21321?

their ticketing system and I decided here because regardless of their
decision, this seems to be our responsibility to make sure within the Tor
Browser, .onion sites are labeled correctly.

We can have this conversation in #21321 as I think we can move both
aspects forward (write a patch for Tor Browser in a way that it gets
upstreamed to Mozilla and get Mozilla "convinced"). At least it would be
useful to have both conversations in one place I think.
