Replying to [comment:12 arma]:
> Is "referer" really the best stand-in we have for "was launched from
that tab"?
"Launched from that tab" is not the model we're going for. It's the model
used by JonDos, but what we want is "Launched from the same url bar
origin/navigation session" (aka privacy requirement 1 in the design doc).
Referer actually does map to what we want for that.
Now, this model does get a little sticky with redirects. See
https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/3600#comment:16 for my
thoughts on that case.
