1. Integration of new technologies like Electrolysis and Servo
2. Protection from Adware and Spyware

According to Mozilla, functionalities that are being brought with the help of modifications in Firefox Add-ons are:
1. Introducing a Powerful add-on WebExtensions API
2. Add-on and extension for signing in
