Yeah, I like better to make our behavior more compatible with other
browsers if the other behavior does make sense (or at least it's not
"not makes sense"). Our current market share doesn't have so many
impact for web developers. Therefore, I worry about that if we keep
compatibility with older Gecko rather than other browsers, new web
services would not support Gecko due to the market share vs.
implementing cost.

I doubt it partially. In my latest experience, most testers use
pre-release bulds silently. I usually get regression reports after
reaching risky patch to the release especially when it's limited to
non-English users.
So, in this case, I think we'd get regression reports of web apps which
is used in world wide. Otherwise, we wouldn't get regression reports
until releasing the new behavior.
