It's too easy to let non-main thread pref usage slip into the tree. We should shout really loudly if this happens, since it can cause crashes.

I thought we had asserts for this at some point (and took them out?).

Because they were preventing daily use of the browser. Again, if I'm recalling correctly... maybe it wasn't the pref service.
