Comment:

 3 years later ... all upstream
 - canvas is now under the RFP switch
 - `privacy.resistFingerprinting.autoDeclineNoUserInputCanvasPrompts` was
 added default true to reduce prompt fatigue
 - a canvas indicator is shown in the urlbar for specific site overrides
 (in Tor Browser this will be session only)
 - at safest level, JS is disabled, so canvas doesn't even apply

 closing as WORKSFORME
