You should look at the links provided at the bottom of the Mozilla wiki page you cite. Seems like a Firefox "system addon" under development. Those addons are installed by Mozilla, and are not user-controllable. The Shield Recipe Client purpose appears to be to give Mozilla a further means of snooping around in your browser and performing actions, such as presenting survey questions, based on the results.
