Description

From commit:1a11e3924b7036868d3164c86e70a9b6f8f0c071:

    All Browsers: disable e10s (multi-process Firefox).

    Otherwise web pages don't render (although "local" chrome like the
    preferences, about:* etc are rendered just fine in the same content
    area). In the Unsafe Browser the failed pages are just completely
    white; in the Tor Browser we get a "Gah. Your tab just crashed".

    Note that without this setting our Tor Browser still gets e10s
    disabled because of addons, namely our branding add-on which
    apparently is not compatible.

Attached are the the logs of when these failures occur.
