cjs is currently still on mozjs78, so I would not expect this to happen
soon, and I think it should be treated as a separate transition. I hope
they'll skip mozjs91 and proceed directly from mozjs78 to mozjs102,
but I don't know.
The number of packages using cjs is much smaller (I think it's literally
just cinnamon, which is their equivalent of gnome-shell) so their version
of this transition will be much smaller. I expect that when the time
comes, the choices available to the Cinnamon maintainers will be similar
to the ones mentioned in this transition.
As with this transition, I would personally be inclined to remove
cjs:armel, libcjs{0,-dev}:armel and cinnamon:armel, leaving the
cinnamon-core, cinnamon-desktop-environment and task-cinnamon-desktop
Architecure:all metapackages (analogous to GNOME's gnome-core, gnome
and task-gnome-desktop) uninstallable on armel; but I'm not a cinnamon
maintainer and they might decide to proceed differently.
