 In Tor Browser, if you temporarily allow a Website to use JavaScript and
 use the New Identity button and go back to the exact same website
 afterwards no script will forget that it granted temporary access to it
 pre-new identity yet allow scripts to be executed nonetheless

 This issue has been reproduced on both Tails 3.3 and Tor Browser 7.0.11
 running on Debian stable.

 It's been reported on Tails bug tracker first:
