We make some effort to discourage users from setting nonstandard prefs in
Tor Browser, or installing 3rd-party extensions/plugins. But maybe we can
do more? For example, should we pop up a warning about deanonymization
when users first attempt to modify a pref or install an addon? And if
users click past that warning, should be periodically pop up warnings in
the future to let users know they have nonstandard prefs or a nonstandard
addon installed?
