Comment (by tom):

 Replying to [comment:9 gk]:
 >However, I am still not convinced that this is the whole picture. In
 particular, I feel those changes *do not* explain how the registry-based
 bypass is working, given that the pref is only checked at one place and
 `areEnterpriseOnlyPoliciesAllowed()` results in `false` for the stable
 series, yet the bug report was made against 8.0.x.

 I also can't explain this, and agree.  But the patch looks good to me.
