Now that bug 790732 has landed, the Components object is no longer defined in content scopes. However, this behavior is behind a pref, and we may end up needing to flip that pref on aurora or beta for web compat. Once this pref makes it all the way to release, we can remove it, which will pave the way for a lot of important refactoring and simplification.

Any call on whether we'll want to do this for FF22?
If we remove the pref code, I think that can ride the trains, so I wouldn't take this in 22 anyway.

Components-in-content was already disabled by flipping the pref since Firefox 22. This bug just removed the flipped pref. Also, I couldn't find any documents explaining about thedom.omit_components_in_content pref (including Firefox 22 compatibility docs). So I don't think we need to update documents.
