No restrictions?
That's correct. It's a sandbox. The sandbox restricts the close
plugin. *You* are only restricted in how you can *playback* media
encrypted by the plugin. *If* you choose to install it (and why
would you?).
The article talks about "preventing users from saving the content".
That's content that the closed-source CDM plugin decrypted and passed
on to Firefox, isn't it?
Yes.

Perhaps the article and I haven't been clear - the sandbox is the big
change. In itself all it does is restrict the plugin (protect *your*
privacy from the closed source plugin).
