Comment:

 Ok, I have set the default sync prefs to only allow syncing of bookmarks,
 history, and passwords if it is enabled for TBB 3.5. Addons, prefs, and
 tabs will be disabled by default (though only via pref, so users can in
 theory enable them).

 See also #10368 for auditing Sync to decide if it is safe enough to
 recommend for bookmarks, history, and passwords (and if we can find some
 way so that only Tor Browsers are synced together).
