 > Please don't lock the proxy settings!  There are legitimate reasons to
 change them, for example:

 Unix socket rather than a TCP port.
 In such cases one should lock prefs that are baked by consensus: everyone
 agrees that fingerprinting protection and first-party isolation should
 always be enforced.
