 We should remove the per-OS implementations of nsIParentalControlsService
 in {{{/toolkit/components/parentalcontrols}}} and always use the stubbed-
 out {{{nsParentalControlsServiceDefault.cpp}}} implementation.

 When an implementation is present, URIs are sent to an {{{isAllowed(...}}}
 function that parental control software presumably can hook in the OS to
 filter content, and a {{{log(...)}}} method also takes in URIs.
