This would feature general settings but also a cookies override list, and maybe in an encrypted form, the passwords. Reproducible: Always
You can always copy corresponding files, you know. See docs on http://kb.mozillazine.org Couldn't find dupes (which is strange), confirming.
Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Ever confirmed: true
