According to https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Mvl/permissions setting an integer preference of "permissions.default.refresh" to either 2 or 3 should have an effect on whether meta refresh tags on pages work. It has no effect at all because nothing ever checks it. (As far as I can tell, permissions.default.image is the only one of those 13 potential prefs that ever gets checked by anything currently in the codebase.)
Based on the patch for bug 83265, nsDocLoader::RefreshAttempted and nsDocShell::GetAllowMetaRedirects look like likely candidates for the relevant content policy check...
Bah, wrong bug. This bug is invalid - the pref is checked, but doesn't have any effect because of bug 464805.
