 OSX 10.14 Beta has added OS-level permission prompts for Mic/Camera
 access. According to Mozilla's prelimimary testing the behavior was:

 > The description I found said the OS should cache the results of the
 prompt. Did a quick test - 1st try: get the the Firefox dialog then two OS
 dialogs for the "Firefox" process (camera and mic), 2nd try: get OS dialog
 for "plugin-container", 3rd try: no OS dialogs

 I requested we file a bug about persisting this to disk in Private
 Browsing mode (and what, if anything we could do about that...) but I
 wanted to get this bug on file for Tor Browser.

 It seems like a user who uses Tor Browser and uses the mic or camera will
 create a disk persistence that they had done so, with timestamp.
