The file type.fs contains these:

//browser
type BrowserStartMode =
    | Firefox
    | FirefoxWithProfile of Firefox.FirefoxProfile
    | FirefoxWithPath of string
    | FirefoxWithUserAgent of string
    | FirefoxWithPathAndTimeSpan of string * TimeSpan
    | IE
    | IEWithOptions of IE.InternetExplorerOptions
    | IEWithOptionsAndTimeSpan of IE.InternetExplorerOptions * TimeSpan
    | EdgeBETA
...

and canopy.fs contains

    browser <-
        match b with
        | IE -> new IE.InternetExplorerDriver(ieDir) :> IWebDriver
        | IEWithOptions options -> new IE.InternetExplorerDriver(ieDir, options) :> IWebDriver
        | IEWithOptionsAndTimeSpan(options, timeSpan) -> new IE.InternetExplorerDriver(ieDir, options, timeSpan) :> IWebDriver
...
        | Firefox -> new FirefoxDriver() :> IWebDriver
        | FirefoxWithProfile profile -> new FirefoxDriver(profile) :> IWebDriver
        | FirefoxWithPath path -> new FirefoxDriver(new Firefox.FirefoxBinary(path), Firefox.FirefoxProfile()) :> IWebDriver
        | FirefoxWithUserAgent userAgent -> firefoxWithUserAgent userAgent
        | FirefoxWithPathAndTimeSpan(path, timespan) -> new FirefoxDriver(new Firefox.FirefoxBinary(path), Firefox.FirefoxProfile(), timespan) :> IWebDriver
        | Safari ->new Safari.SafariDriver() :> IWebDriver
...

What I’m asking is another option for starting firefox while specifying some options and timeout. The options will allow me to control the FireFox driver (e.g., disable caching).
