Comment (by yawning):

 Something like this perhaps:
 https://git.schwanenlied.me/yawning/sandboxed-tor-
 browser/commit/a2b6668045f1947a94edde8b52766e10f43cf76e

 Tor Browser will modify the unlocked prefs, but I'm not sure if that will
 actually do anything.  I still think this is something that should just be
 done in Tor Browser (both in the "that's the correct place to fix this, if
 we aren't killing the JIT correctly" and "we should kill the JIT by
 default, possibly always" senses).
