 A user on our blog noted
 (https://blog.torproject.org/comment/279207#comment-279207) that they get
 a warning about JavaScript being enabled despite have the security slider
 set to "Safest".

 See: http://dreadditevelidot.onion/post/5c1fcd0539a3a5484eb3 for an
 example page and some discussion on it.

 I tried a bit but so far failed to provide a minimal testcase outside of
 the .onion space.
