Some peripheral but relevant information follows.

Replying to [ticket:3246 mikeperry]:
> Right now, we've set Tor Browser to block third party cookies.

By the way, what this technically means is that we've changed the Mozilla
default preference:
{{{
name: network.cookie.cookieBehavior
value: 0
}}}
...to:
{{{
name: network.cookie.cookieBehavior
value: 1
}}}
As with all preferences, this is determined by parsing ''prefs.js'' (or
manually given in the URL bar 'about:config'.)
----
Cookie preferences are documented [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Cookies_Preferences_in_Mozilla/ in Dan Witte's Mozilla developer
doc].
