Comment (by gk):

 Replying to [ticket:19508 arthuredelstein]:
 > First, from what I can see, when the pref `plugin.disable` is set to
 true (as it is in `browser/app/profile/000-tor-browser.js`), all plugins
 (including Flash) are blocked from ever loading into the Firefox process.
 Therefore the code in our #3547 is never exercised.

 For reference: where can you see that?
