* Proposal: Let OpenGL be turned on for Beta 7 despite talos regressions.
* Proposal: Let OpenGL be turned on on Mac for Beta 7 despite talos regressions.
** Data: ~90 ms Ts regression that is very hard to impossible to work around (we can't do it asynchronously on a different thread). Proposal: Deal with it in the same way we're dealing with Direct3D 9 Ts regressions, by putting *other* things on a different startup thread.

** ~6% Tp4 regression (down from ~10%). Proposal: Let it in for now and do everything we can to get it back down.
** Reasons this is probably OK:
*** We expect this to provide a lot of benefit for some currently quite slow pages.
*** We need more testing for this to be in a position to be releasable for b7.
*** It's just a switch - we can turn it back off.
** Alternative:
*** Don't release OpenGL support on Mac with Firefox 4.
*** Allow it in post-b7.
