------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 Some websites, particularly file hosts, expect a user's IP not to change.
 If they are spread over multiple domains, the domain isolator causes them
 to refuse to work, possibly with a message such as "Wrong IP".

 FWIW, commenting line 2018 in torbutton.js will conveniently allow the
 pref extensions.torbutton.use_nontor_proxy to toggle isolation, which
 fixes all site issues.

 2018 torbutton_do_new_identity();

 Can't find that pref toggled anywhere else. Torbutton doesn't even appear
 to support nontor proxies.


 This is split off from #16409.
