Description

What type of issue is this?

Missing compatibility data

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

Although data_collection_permissions is a property and other properties (e.g. strict_min_version) are not listed under BCD, the newly introduced (FF140, FF-Android 142) property is worth considering for inclusion.

From: addons-linter

The "data_collection_permissions" property is missing.

Warning: "/browser_specific_settings/gecko/data_collection_permissions" property will be required in the future. Please add this key to the manifest. More information at: https://mzl.la/firefox-builtin-data-consent
