Details

mozprofile keeps track of preferences. But its a bit deceiving and likely wrong: https://github.com/mozautomation/mozmill/blob/e1400eb889e1461bddebdbdc21d6642a7461cc5c/mozprofile/mozprofile/profile.py#L82 Because we do this in the constructor, vs. e.g. set_preferences, additional calls to set_preferences will not be added to self.preferences. We keep track for self.reset, which will create/reset the profile by reinvoking the constructor This should be looked into and fixed.

I'm going to wontfix it. Even if the name is misleading, which now I'm having second thoughts about, I think the functionality is correct. If not, we should present a real-world problem where it isn't and fix it. Please feel free to reticket in a less vague way than I have
