 We received a blog comment saying the onion-location button appears, but
 it only disappears when it is clicked (the page is not reloaded).

 https://blog.torproject.org/comment/288193#comment-288193

 The two explanations I see are `OnionLocation:Refresh` does not reach the
 child process (this seems unlikely), or `if (onionLocationURI &&
 refreshURI) {` fails.

 Based on the description, `OnionLocationParent.buttonClick()` is called,
 and that calls `OnionLocationParent.redirect()`, and that calls
 `OnionLocationParent.setDisabled()`. But, in the content process, the page
 is not reloaded.
