Following the discussion at
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/31512#comment:10 where I
suspect changes to the inner window are happening. Of the plethora of
things that can alter the inner window measurements....
`ui.key.menuAccessKey` = `0` will disable the alt key toggling the menu
bar on and off
Letterboxing solves this issue, but it can also be very annoying if your
letterboxed height keeps jumping sizes. It's not the only thing that can
alter your height, but it is something that users can inadvertently
trigger (I have fat thumbs, 10 of them, and it really annoys me: hence I
set this myself in Firefox)
I'll leave it up to you. If the threat is mitigated, then why remove
functionality. Feel free to close... or action ...
