Usually www-client/firefox gets updated very frequently. I bet the maintainers have a bump already on their todo list, but I will assign the bug as usual.

The website in your request notes "Version 45.0.2, first offered to Release channel users on April 11, 2016". 
Please keep https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Bugzilla/Guide#Zero-day_bump_requests
in mind.

Thanks for all the ebuilds to the Mozilla Team.

I have used Copy & Paste for the text. 
It seems that Mozilla have adjusted the date, shortly thereafter.

Firefox-45.0.2 and thunderbird-38.7.2 bumps are essentially identical to 45.0.1 and 38.7.1 respectively -- they were bumped in order to be rebuilt in relation to issues with the mozilla upgrade infrastructure.  The build images that gentoo's ebuilds allow you to install, as well as the source images, remain essentially unchanged.  As such, no, I wasn't planning on bumping. 

Firefox/thunderbird 46.0 / 38.8 will be released around April 26th.

If these fixes that were patched in for firefox-45.0.2 are causing you enough grief that they warrant a bump, then I will reconsider; just post another comment and reopen the bug.
