(Keywords: regression) 

STR:
1. Make sure plugin setting is "Enabled"
2. Load http://www.wired.com/video/
3. Play video
4. Open settings menu and change plugin setting from "Enabled" to "Disabled"
5. Close the settings menu and return to the web page
6. See that the Flash video is now blank.

RESULT:
Changing the plugin setting logs a scary error message, but doesn't crash:

I/AndroidBridge(22078): ###!!!!!!! Something's grabbing the JNIEnv from the wrong thread! (thr 0x5c12ef90 should be 0x5bebcb30)

I suspect this is a recent regression because I can reproduce this with recent Nightly 19 builds, but not Aurora 18 builds.

Flash is going away (bug 1381916), so there's no point in pursuing this further.
