[1] The HTMLTrackElement interface was added in Firefox 24, but was disabled by default behind the preference media.webvtt.enabled. The interface is enabled by default (along with all other WebVTT features) in Firefox 31.
[2] Until Firefox 50, the src attribute is settable, but the change does not get handled properly. Starting in Firefox 50, existing track data is properly disposed of, new track data is loaded and put into effect, and so forth.
[3] Prior to Firefox 50, text tracks would only load if the <track> is in a document. Starting in Firefox 50, this incorrect requirement is lifted.
