 After Mozilla fixed #18513 a confusing warning is often visible in the
 console:
 {{{
 When cancelling a request for chrome://browser/skin/preferences/in-
 content/favicon.ico because the inner window was destroyed or a new
 favicon was loaded for it, it was already canceled!
 PlacesUIUtils.jsm:109:0
 }}}
 Mozilla seems to fix this with
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1279650. We could think about
 backporting this to Tor Browser.
