Since I’m not using this kind of Javascript shenanigans, I’d like to know whether Pale Moon supports this API at all. If not, I can sleep much better.
Any “WebXR” API support planned for Pale Moon?

Some Cloudflare-hosted or “protected” websites set “Permissions-Policy” to “xr-spatial-tracking=*”, meaning Cloudflare tries to use the WebXR Device API.

I'm not entirely sure, but this test (and the others) seems to work (with jsdelvr allowed), though it says "VR Not Found"(I don't have a VR device so..) : https://immersive-web.github.io/webxr-s ... e-sea.html

Pale Moon does not support WebVR/WebXR by design.

XR-related code is removed from UXP codebase. I personally find WebXR useful as optional thing, i've used XR-targeted Firefox version on standalone VR device, which probably supported both WebVR and WebXR APIs, XR apps in web usually demonstrate some environments or media, so usage might be compared to VRML or early WebGL demos, not modern WebGL apps. But firefox XR code was heavily tied to android. Anyway, i think such features should be implemented as extensions or separate project: it's separate API with very small amount of users.
I do not know if it's possible to implement it with xpi, as XR rendering changes might be too complex, more likely it needs separate app, probably adding new xpcom components
I think, nobody will put on VR headset in usual desktop browser to watch VR content. It's more likely people run special browser on steam frame, or PCVR platform, that will draw VR-friendly UI, have VR-friendly controls
