Comment (by cypherpunks):
TB previously displayed a yellow bar warning after maximizing the window.
From comment:22:ticket:7255:
> "Maximizing Tor Browser can allow websites to determine information
about your monitor size, which can be used to track you. We recommend you
leave Tor Browser windows in their original default size. [OK]"
It was disabled in #31598.
Why not bring that back but have a letterboxing message? It could pop up
once per New Identity if the letterbox border is displayed or is larger
than the web content dimensions. It could have an internal preference
count to display it once per New Identity up to 3 times, similar to what
the yellow bar did.
