added: its called "adjust service"
correction - can not truly speak for testpilot, but firefox klar will do:

this is anyhow tech-talk in community. mozilla has the option to add or delete anything they want - see shield. if shield and other is not in final present, firefox loads it instant when online. and this is only one example, more to come!
