Details

(Whiteboard: triaged)

We do an an XHR call and open a window in the identity api. We need to see if we need to do something for the calling context.
Chrome apparently disables it in incognito: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32777079
The google specific APIs being discussed on the thread mentioned in comment #1 are not implemented in our identity api. There is no reason to disable the API we implement, but we do need to consider whether we need to do additional work to address the user context.

This should only be an issue if we implement the other identity apis (ie hooking into fxa in bug 1320862)
