Comment:

 Their patch is here:
 https://github.com/iSECPartners/publications/blob/master/reports/Tor%20Browser%20Bundle/artifacts/network.jar
 .block-remote-files.patch

 They recommended we set this at "Low" (ie by default) in the slider. I
 would be more comfortable setting it at one of the Medium settings, I
 think.
