Are the public versions of FireFox 17 and 17.0.1 the same thing as the ESR version of 17 and 17.0.1? For example, if my application supports FireFox 17 and 17.0.1, should I expect users on the public and ESR versions of 17 and 17.0.1 to have the same experience? Thanks!

The only users on firefox 17 should be ESR users now, as the regular version of Firefox 17 is no longer supported and hasn't been for many months. Also, all ESR users should be on Firefox 17.0.7, as all older versions are no longer supported.
