In the nsPermissionManager implementation, permissions keys created from principals have some of the origin attributes stripped. See: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/45f30e1d19bde27bf07e47a0a5dd0962dd27ba18/extensions/permissions/nsPermissionManager.cpp#180,183
This has a high impact on the consumers and should be mentioned in the interface documentation.

The interface is here: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/source/netwerk/base/nsIPermissionManager.idl we can add a note that we key / modify permissions by principal, but that we currently strip userContextId which means all containers share the same permissions.
