(Sending this in another thread in case people didn't see my note at the
end of the original thread.)
The new rules are in effect for mozilla-central and the repositories that
merge into it. Revving UUIDs is no longer necessary.
Happy hacking!

Is `mach update-uuids` still necessary? If not, can we get a bug on file to
remove it?

We still have documentation on MDN with the old rules:
"The uuid must be changed anytime any part of the
interface or its ancestors are changed"
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/XPIDL#Interfaces
Ehsan, could you update that section of the page to reflect the new
state of the world?
Thanks!

Approval requests for release/beta/aurora in Bugzilla still have
"[String/UUID change made/needed]" as one of the points in the checklist,
too. Though maybe we need to wait for this change to reach those branches
before removing that.
