My take on it is that Mozilla no longer wants to expend many resources on back-porting security fixes, and would rather concentrate on development. For those parts of the corporate world that would be disadvantaged by this, Mozilla would like them to foot the bill for extra security back-porting, and/or get together and do it themselves since it's open-source.
