Background Auto-Updates and compatibility with language packs

Hi, I need to deploy the Firefox ESR version to 10 different languages using language packs, but I see from this documentation that one of the criteria to use Background auto-update is to don't use language packs.

app.update.langpack.enabled must be false, or otherwise there must be no langpacks installed. Background tasks cannot update addons such as langpacks, because they are installed into a profile, and langpacks that are not precisely matched with the version of Firefox that is installed can cause YSOD failures (see bug 1647443), so background updating in the presence of langpacks is too risky.

Is this documentation still valid for branch 102 or now is possible to use it? If not, will it be possible in a future release to use auto-update with language packs?

Thanks
