Comment:

 Okay, I know it's late but I finally found time to test that with the
 9.0a4 release candidate. It does not seem to work for me. :( The URL shows
 up in the URL bar but nothing happens. Interestingly, the number of open
 tabs is 0, which seems to indicate that there is no private tab available.

 What is worse, though, is that it seems to work for me with the current
 alpha, 9.0a3. Is that a side-effect of fixing #24920? Or I am just lucky
 with that version?

 (Nit: s/Sanitizing is enable/Sanitizing is enabled/)

 This made it onto `tor-browser-60.8.0esr-9.0-1` (commit
 129f38a67ac6db0b80a371d3f44fff30a042e5a1).
