Details
As formerly mentioned on bug 1384969 we have to reduce the logging given that it adds lots of irritation to people. Sadly turning of the pref "browser.dom.window.dump.enabled" was the wrong way doing it. So we have to figure out something else. For example we could parse the stdout from Firefox and only let pass entries for Marionette. If doing so we should also have a flag for letting all pass through. Not sure if there is log level higher than trace. On the other side there might still be a bug with logging in relation to Marionette. It doesn't seem to happen when using the client alone, but geckodriver. Maybe there is a pref we miss to set for the profile and first start of Firefox to prevent unnecessary logging. Depending on how important this change is I could have a look into.

The intention of the patch that got backed out was to stop Browser Console entries caused by web content errors from being printed to stdout; not to stop stdout logging (using dump()) from Firefox in general.

So this needs discussion. I will put it as an item for this weeks meeting on Wednesday.

I think we decided to resolve this by hiding the stdout/stderr from Firefox by default.
