 Replying to [comment:1 gk]:
 > Do you have an example where this gets triggered with a clean, new Tor
 Browser?
 It's impossible.
 > Looking at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1252068 it seems
 that gets only triggered if you modify some SSL related preferences? But
 somewhat surprisingly I can't reproduce this issue on my Linux box even
 when trying to follow the steps for the Q&A people in that Mozilla bug.
 Because of the other bugs ;)
 > But maybe you are hitting any of the follow-up bugs. Anyway, I guess
 hiding that button is a good idea.
 No. It's a very helpful feature for noobs like in STR
 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1303286, as it resets "SSL
 related preferences" to Tor Browser defaults.
