Don't think this needs to be security-sensitive. Mike?

No this was a mistake on my behalf

I'd been meaning to open a bug for this, so thank you.

I wasn't sure what the right thing to do here was, but you're right. If the pref is locked specifically, it should be locked in the page permissions dialog.

Because this bug's Severity has not been changed from the default since it was filed, and it's Priority is P3 (Backlog,) indicating it has been triaged, the bug's Severity is being updated to S3 (normal.)
