I'm going to leave the tabbrowser.addProgressListener shim for the moment, since fixing the browser_google_behavior.js test that relies on it is non-trivial.

I'm reluctant to sign-off on changes like this without fully understanding the implications.

I'm reluctant to sign-off on changes like this without fully understanding the implications. I'd normally ask for review from an XPConnect peer, but this is also essentially dead code that's only used by a few tests, and is going to be removed once we get rid of the allowCPOWSInAddon stuff. Essentially, the problem is this: When we create a sandbox, we try to propagate the addonId of the caller scope to that sandbox. When a scope has an add-on ID, and that add-on has shims enabled, we enable shims for the sandbox. But after removing shims, we have two problems: 1) When we create a sandbox through shims, the sandbox is actually created in the RemoteAddonsParent scope, or in a remote process. Either way, there's no add-on ID for it to inherit in the caller scope, so it doesn't. 2) When we create a scope with interpositions, we assert that that scope has the system principal. What this adds up to is that when a scope with interpositions enabled tries to create a content-privileged sandbox, and the creation doesn't happen through the Cu.Sandbox shim, it mistakenly inherits the caller's addonId and interpositions-enabled flags, and asserts. This change is just a stop-gap to prevent those sandboxes from inheriting an addonId (the same way they wouldn't if there were shims enabled) until we can remove this code entirely. Which should hopefully be soon.

That would have been my preference, but I was trying to preserve the original behavior where a reference to the original button node is stored and then clicked again after the document is replaced because of the document.write() call. I'm not sure how important that behavior is, so I don't really want to change it.

Hmm, I guess this means errors here will now be ignored when running these tests in e10s mode? I think we should check with Honza who owns this tool to see if that's acceptable. I am not sure how critical this part of the test framework is considered to be.

I think we should check with Honza who owns this tool to see if that's acceptable. I am not sure how critical this part of the test framework is considered to be. We can always replace it with `gBrowser.contentWindowAsCPOW` as a short-term work-around, but I think using a CPOW for this is a terrible idea...

In an, in retrospect, unsurprising turn events, removing shims that send sync messages to the parent process turns out to affect timings enough to cause new intermittent failures in a bunch of tests.

Comment on attachment 8957048 [details] Bug 1443964: Part 3 - Remove no-cpows-in-tests rule. Re-opening this for review since I think the uses-unsafe-cpows test annotation makes this obsolete.

I haven't done an exhaustive cross-check to see if there are any remaining eslint-disable-next-line mozilla/no-cpows-in-tests annotations leftover after this, but I suppose ESLint will let us know.
