Open issues/risks
`
Stage 1: Definition
1. Feature overview
The permission manager should have the same functionality that the Strict Transport Security service has: when private browsing mode is enabled, changes to permissions should be kept only in memory. This way, when private mode is exited, any changes in site permissions can be rolled back.
2. Users & use cases
`
3. Dependencies
`
4. Requirements
This should be disabled by default to keep the existing Firefox behavior, but there should be a pref to turn it on for add-ons that want it. Eventually, we may toggle the pref on by default, but we need some significant testing first.
