Bug 15599: Range requests used by pdfjs are not isolated to URL bar domain
After much debugging and investigation, it seems that the required information needed to drive the first-party domain cannot be accessed in the XmlHttpRequest creation path. The JS context the part of pdf.js making the range requests runs with does not have a reference to parent window and associated LoadInfo information (which includes the requesting first-party domain).
To fix the issue, we can easily disable support for range-based requests via the pdfjs.disableRange property. However, the side-effect here is that pages can not be read as they load; the entire pdf must be downloaded before it can be read and interacted with.
