Comment (by sysrqb):

 Replying to [comment:9 sysrqb]:
 > I'm not sure what Fennec does when it receives the BOOT_COMPLETED
 intent.
 #26825
 > I'm also not sure how it uses SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW.
 #26826

 > I'll move READ_HISTORY_BOOKMARKS under the MOZ_ANDROID_LOCATION ifdef
 guard for Fennec - including this permission likely breaks state
 separation.

 We should include this as a FIXUP into the commit:
 {{{
 commit 85e08083165e95299b9ea4e96dd6d47bcd7dd1ee
 Author: Matthew Finkel <Matthew.Finkel at gmail.com>

     Bug 25741 - TBA: Only include Firefox Account permissions if we want
 them
