Details

(Whiteboard: [nightly-community]) 

Using latest nightly builds, in the last two days I noticed a weird behavior of "manage your Do Not Track settings" link in the Privacy preferences, which opens a new tab.

How to reproduce:
1) Install nightly build (currently using 50.0a1, 20160629030209).
2) Open Preferences > Privacy.
3) Click the "manage your Do Not Track settings" link to change DNT settings.

What happens:
1) The DNT settings modal window is opened together with a new tab (URL: http:///#) and Nightly even switches to that tab.

What should happen:
1) Only the DNS modal window is opened.
