Comment (by gk):

 Some further bits from the Mozilla tickets I looked through during work on
 #31597:

 1) https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1535697 makes sure that
 separate connections are used for isolated third-party trackers. We want
 to make sure this works with our First-Party Isolation as expected.

 2) There is the option to
 [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1541238 delay tracking
 loads]. This is interesting in the sense that we could play with
 (perceived) performance improvements while not needing to block anything.
