The blocking of redirects to data: URIs has been enabled by default for about a year now (bug 1691658). Ignoring tests, is this pref still needed?

I doubt it, but I don't know how we normally make these decisions. Valentin?

I don't think we need the pref anymore, but fixing the tests that rely on it means it's not trivial.
If anyone wants to work on this feel free to post a patch.
