Comment 1

[Olivia Hall [:olivia]]

This bug will be used to begin propagating the new GeckoView Gecko Preferences Controller functions to AC.

This bug should cover linking in AC:

• GeckoPreference object
• getGeckoPref
• setGeckoPref x3
• clearGeckoUserPref

AC name should be Gecko -> Browser.

The observer will be linked in another bug.
