Firefox Beta Enters Development with New Kiosk Mode, Picture-in-Picture on Windows

A few days after the release of the Firefox 70 web browser, Mozilla kicked off the development of the next major version, Firefox 71, which is currently in the beta testing phase.
 
While Firefox 71 doesn't look like a big update, it brings a couple of interesting new features, such as a new kiosk mode that allow you to open the web browser directly in full-screen mode without any other distractions. This is mostly useful for companies who want to use on their kiosks, and can be enabled via the --kiosk command-line parameter.
 
Another interesting feature that will land as part of the upcoming Firefox 71 web browser is Picture-in-Picture (PiP) mode on Windows systems, which lets users pop a video out of its webpage into a floating window that can be resized and placed on top of all windows and in any part of your desktop.
 
On top of that, Firefox 71 promises a redesigned about:config internal configuration page, a new, easier to use Certificate Viewer that brings more features and more detailed information,  and a new server-timing information in DevTools' Network panel to allow web developers to analyze server-related timings in the context of other request and response details.
