A preload belongs to the WebContents, not the page: a website loaded into
the Settings tab kept window.cfg and could read every vault password, flip
settings and install extensions without consent. Settings and add-on tabs
now never load web content, and the channels behind settings-preload check
their sender. `navigate` no longer accepts calls from web pages.
Add-on updates trusted any publisherSig, whatever name it carried, even for
bundled add-ons. The trust root is now the installed addon.json (publisher,
or the operator key when there is none); versions must be plain dotted
numbers; a community install can't take over a bundled or foreign id.
Also:
- autofill matches and fills against the live URL, not a stale prov.host
- bns:// forwards the raw request path (..%2F escaped the name's bucket)
- clipboard-read denied, openExternal asks; forged collision choices ignored
- web pages can't window.open file:/chrome:/theseus:; data:/blob: no longer
go to the search engine; the quick-links panel loses home-preload
- clear-history-on-quit is awaited and removes history.json too
- update helper takes its paths from the environment (non-ASCII profiles)
- electrum poll has a deadline; misses wait at most 2.5 s
- p records go through Tor; add-on proxy credentials are actually used
- whole-folder require-cache bust on add-on version change; failed
activate() no longer leaks its request filter
- approvals released when the window closes; web-app ids stay on-origin
