User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:59.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/59.0 Build ID: 20171115100050 Steps to reproduce: 1. Enable "Reduce screen motion" in macOS https://support.apple.com/kb/PH25204?locale=en_US 2. Start Firefox Actual results: toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled is not made false. Expected results: toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled should be false. Ideally, this should be a user facing preference as well, with options of "Enabled, Disabled and Use System Preferences". It would be nice if this weren't a boolean, or if there were a new setting like "toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled.system" that controlled the "Use System Preferences" setting.

I think what we should do for this is to check prefers-reduced-motion media query in the case where we create animations in script and adding alternative styles, instead of setting toolkit.cosmeticAnimations.enabled and checking the pref once we support prefers-reduced-motion on all platforms.

Dão, is this a dupe of bug 1478597? I don't want to keep this open if it is already resolved. Thanks!
