Although the permissions and preferences may still exist, AFAIK the only way to whitelist a domain for use with Remote XUL is via Jorge's Remote XUL Manager add-on.
Jorge, do you plan to port this to WebExtensions (if that's even possible)? Or is there another way to edit the whitelist? If not, that would effectively stop Remote XUL applications working with new installations of Firefox >56, regardless of other changes. We've told users of our Remote XUL applications that, in practice, we will only support up to Firefox 52ESR (and even this has issues if e10s is enabled), while we're frantically rewriting our code to HTML in the hopes of having it ready before the 52ESR EOL.
