> Despite 'Store Non-Tor Cookies in a protected jar' being enabled, non-
Tor cookies are wiped on Tor-enable.

Tor cookies to disk'.
It's not related. (Also, you can link to a bug number in Trac by typing it
as `#2011` (which displays as #2011).)
If you're willing to unpack a tarball and move files around manually to
test this, download:
[https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbutton.git/snapshot/bc661c80d1e835d12330138505c1af246baac658.tar.gz]
and copy the contents of the resulting `src/` directory into
`extensions/{e0204bd5-9d31-402b-a99d-a6aa8ffebdca}/` in your Firefox
profile directory. (Your Firefox profile directory has a name that looks
like `gibberish.default`.)
(That snapshot is of the commit right before #2011 was introduced, and is
after the new cookie-management features were added.)
