Comment (by Diapolo):
I did the following and it is NOT working, I can't disable it:
1. Started Tor Browser and confirmed windows were getting auto-resized
2. Set "extensions.torbutton.resize_windows" pref to false
3. Quit and restarted Tor Browser
4. Confirmed that "extensions.torbutton.resize_windows" was still false
5. Windows are STILL getting resized (even if 4. does apply)
Why I don't want this is easy, at least I want to opt-out. It looks ugly
as hell to see the desktop surrounding the browser window. UX wise this is
THE fingerprinting protection that makes me feel upset!
