Most important changes/fixes since beta 2:

This should fix webcrypto issues people have reported.
Fixed places/library category errors (tags etc).
Fixed geolocation (prompt and lookup, "more information").
Fixed desktop notification and pointerlock prompts.
Fixed the "more information" link for mixed content.
Removed pdf.js from the browser.
Considering this preview module (maintained for emergency only) would not render even half the documents correctly, it has been removed from Pale Moon. Some websites that insist on only having embedded PDF content (not downloadable and not using a web-based viewer on-site) may require you to install a PDF plugin as a result.
Fixed the "ask to activate" image+link in plugin areas.
Fixed the browser downloads UI call in BrowserDownloadsUI().
Enforced Firefox-compatibility useragent on msn.com and bing.com to prevent errors.
Fixed the save file picker dialog closing immediately on some sites (e.g. dropbox).
Fixed missing toolbar in print preview.
Fixed "Forget about this site" command.
Fixed an issue with update logging. [full release notes]
