Bug 1630763 Comment 8 Edit History

Note: The actual edited comment in the bug view page will always show the original commenter’s name and original timestamp.

I think we should also add to this comment to make it clear that this is different than the partitioning we want in dFPI or other OA-based partioning: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/d2cec90777d573585f8477d5170892e5dcdfb0ab/dom/base/nsGlobalWindowInner.cpp#4471-4474.

Perhaps:

> // For Partitioned Trackers, we expose a partitioned LocalStorage, which
> // doesn't share data with other contexts, and it's just in memory.
> // Partitioned localStorage is available only for trackers listed in the
> // privacy.restrict3rdpartystorage.partitionedHosts pref.  See
> // nsContentUtils::IsURIInPrefList to know the syntax for the pref value.
> // This is a temporary web-compatibility hack. This is unrelated to the 
> // partitioning provided by origin attributes (e.g., FPI, dFPI, or containers) 

Gary: I've assigned you to the bug since you already have a patch ready. Thanks for updating the test as well!
