Comment (by mcs):

 The network ID is visible at about:networking#networkid. It is also
 exposed to privileged WebExtensions (see
 toolkit/components/extensions/parent/ext-networkStatus.js), probably to
 support the Firefox Private Network (VPN) feature. Because the network ID
 is not exposed to web content or even regular WebExtensions, maybe we
 should just leave it as-is.
