Comment:

 Yes, but I am not sure whether that's a thing we can properly fix on our
 end given that the threat model behind this bug is one where the local
 machine gets'/is compromised/inspected by the attacker. I am  inclined to
 just point to Tails for that scenario and close the ticket as WONTFIX.
