First of all let me say a BIG thank you to all the developers who contribute to Firefox (and all Mozilla projects for that matter). I know countless dev hours goes into the project and I really appreciate all your hard work.

To my question, I realize Firefox Hello is based on the webRTC standard and there are a many other options available for screencasting, but it would be incredibly convenient to have that feature natively built into Hello. Are there any plans to support screen sharing in the future?
