Configure Firefox using a sensibly formatted plaintext file (e.g. TOML or JSON)

[muizzs]

Can we have a way to configure our browser (and export our existing browser settings) in a sensibly laid out and formatted plaintext configuration file?

It should resemble something like Zed's config.json or every Rust project's Cargo.toml. The goal with this will allow us to sync configuration files with a backup and make the settings portable.

This will also allow you to set up a new fresh browser/profile and then load your configuration file to refresh the browser and then continue where you left off, or to use the same browser configuration across multiple operating systems.

Also, I would like to not always depend on my browser working to configure it in case it has a really bad problem.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

aren't settings saved in a few js files already?

unless there are some that are not, but I think everything should be there
