I loosely follow oss-security and commits to Debian's secure-testing
repo. I've rarely seen advance notice of security issues/fixes in
Mozilla software via these channels. So, tracking MFSAs seems to be
the best we can do with only public information. AFAIK nobody from
Tails is on the "private" list where Linux distros discuss embargoed
security issues.
Wrt. Firefox, so far we've received heads up in advance from the Tor
Browser team. I guess similar ties with upstream Thunderbird could be
built and result in similar heads up.
