1874137 - (necko-pref-flips) [meta] Tracking bug for necko pref flips

Status: NEW

(Core :: Networking, task, P3)

Description

[Valentin Gosu [:valentin] (he/him)]

We sometimes land prefs that need to be enabled in the future after confirming a fix, or after we determine that the Nightly/Early-beta pref doesn't cause any issues.
All bugs that land a pref that needs to be reconsidered in the future should be made to block this bug.
Once the pref is flipped, the bug should be removed from blocking this bug, and put in the see also list.

We might want to do an experiment to figure out the optimal values for bug 1879814 cache prefs.
