Comment(by gk):

 I am not sure what the pref is actually doing yet but according to my test
 setup with ssldump it won't help us here. I tested the following with
 ssldump listening:

 1) Load https://anonym-surfen.de (in it an image from https://ip-check.org
 is loaded)
 2) Load https://twitter.com
 3) Load https://anonym-surfen.de
 4) Load the image URL as first party (I tweaked a parameter of this URL
 slightly to avoid caching issues)

 At least for the image I could verify that the same session ID is used
 throughout 1)-4) and "security.enable_tls_session_tickets" was set to
 "false".

 I hope I did something wrong here but I already double-checked my results
 and it does not seem to be the case.
