 Replying to [comment:6 mikeperry]:
 > Since we only care about supporting TBB with this, we can probably be
 blunt and just hardcode an f2 value that gets set every time the cookies
 are cleared.. We still should look at flashblock and the greasemonkey
 scripts for reference.

 Turns out Katmagic wrote one of the greasemonkey scripts. However, it
 apparently has issues sometimes. It hits an infinite loop, and it also has
 a mechanism for changing the PREF value instead of just setting it
 initially.

 Katmagic - why did you do the reset piece? What happens if you do this in
 TBB:

 1. Hit New Identity in Torbutton's dropdown
 2. Use a cookie editor to set a cookie with
 PREF=f2=40000000;domain=.youtube.com
 3. Go to youtube and try the following
    a. watching some videos
    b. logging in
    c. creating an account

 Try this a few times. Do you still hit your infinite loop? Does logging in
 remove your ability to view HTML5 vids? Does creating an account?
