 JKT has been working on some prefs he suggested we might consider:
 * Security.mixed_content.upgrade_display_content
   * Upgrades passive mixed content to HTTPS transparently
 * Network.ftp.enabled
   * disable FTP
 * security.insecure_connection_icon.enabled and
 security.insecure_connection_icon.pbmode.enabled
 * security.insecure_connection_text.enabled and
 security.insecure_connection_text.pbmode.enabled
   * Both of these mark HTTP connections as insecure. One with a broken
 lock icon, the other with text saying ‘Not Secure’
 * Insecure flash content:
   * security.mixed_content.block_object_subrequest
 * Sensors:
   * device.sensors.*.enabled (motion, proximity, ambientLight and
 orientation) && the Event constructors are now also included in
 device.sensors.enabled
   * `device.sensors.enabled` set to False in RF
 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1369319)
 * dom.registerProtocolHandler.insecure.enabled
 * browser.cache.offline.insecure.enable
 * dom.registerContentHandler.enabled

 Others being pondered:
 * Http-disabled
   * I believe this is to block all HTTP connections.
