Somewhat difficult, as the final release is actually the last release
candidate, unchanged (really, distinfo doesn't change) so we'd be stuck
with 107.0rc2 (or something) until 108.0; and firefox itself believess
it's 107.0, too (that's even somewhat true for the betas, but you never
see them).
And for the minors often there's only one rc, which then becomes GA,
and I don't want package churn for no-ops.

Regards,
Christoph
