 François Marier wrote [http://feeding.cloud.geek.nz/posts/tweaking-
 referrer-for-privacy-in-firefox/ a good overview] of the various tweaks

 It seems there's again a number of site-breakage tradeoff to be made, so I
 wonder if it would made sense to enable more painful protections when the
 security slider is set higher.
