Comment (by harmony):

 In the course of resolving a help desk ticket in which the user claimed to
 have permanently disabled this warning across TB sessions, I tried to use
 about:permissions to view/change the stored preference, but nothing showed
 up. I advised the user to reinstall Tor Browser, but I don't know whether
 there is a more efficient way of doing this.
