 Firefox's new Tracking Protection includes 2 lists, 1 basic and 1 strict
 list with the basic enabled by default in private browsing (the mode TBB
 uses by default).

 How will this need to be configured in Firefox 45 ESR when it lands?

 There's a config value that can also be toggled so protection works even
 without private browsing mode on for users that allow history on (=
 private browsing mode switched off)

 Is there a way to link this in with the security slider (basic protection
 for lower levels and strict for high)?
