True, sticking with foss morals definitely widens appeal and encourages firefoxes growth overall.
I just thought it odd to accommodate for a service/industry that could completely care less, and isn't generally something I thought the open source community would be interested in in the first place?

Maybe i'm wrong

They aren't accommodating the gambling industry. It's a bug fix for a media player issue. The text in the changelog comes from the bug report title. The bug isn't specific to that site, and neither is the fix.
