🟪 issues: diffs FF101-FF102 | changelog v102
- see #1495
- FF102 mistakenly left in the migration code for
network.cookie.lifetimePolicy(effectively making it deprecated), but backed that out in FF102.0.1. But there are still issues, and we want this, the ESR102 user.js version, to be stable for ESR users (and current FF102 users) - namely, when sanitizing onShutdown fails (crash, ungraceful app exit, closing the app with the OS, whatever) it triggers a sanitize onStartup fail-safe, which does not respect exceptions. This is fixed in FF103. - There is also an issue where even with a presumably clean exit, exceptions are not respected sometimes, and cookies + site data is fully wiped. I do not know if this particular issue will come right in 103, where we will have to revert once more to
clearOnShutdown
