It would be nice to have an optional geckodriver USE flag that turns on the functionality mentioned here: https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/#building According to this official GitHub page, all that is needed to enable this feature is to add `ac_add_options --enable-geckodriver`. It also mentions that "Support is best in Firefox 57 and greater." The firefox ebuild scares me a bit.
I have a www-apps/geckodriver-bin package in my graaff overlay for the geckodriver part in case people are interested. A from-source version would be nice to have.
