Without MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1 set, two-finger touchpad scrolling doesn't work right: it goes three lines at a time, rather than pixel-by-pixel. Starting Firefox with "MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1" resolves the issue. I know MOZ_USE_XINPUT2=1 is a bit experimental, but on Tumbleweed, that could be more justifiable. And it seems to work just fine and resolves a significant usability issue. Perhaps the .desktop file should be updated to launch Firefox with that envar set.
