Isolate Access to History navigation to Tor state preference does not work
Reading the call to test the new Torbutton version (and Mike's thinking about a kind of a bug bounty ;) ) I looked a bit around and found that 5.12 of the Torbutton design documentation is violated.
To test this
- Create a new profile with the latest alpha version of Torbutton.
- Start Firefox (the problem occurs on FF 3.6.16 and 4.0) and activate Torbutton (if it is not already active).
- Load e.g. http://ip-check.info
- Load afterwards e.g. http://www.heise.de
- Toggle the Tor button.
- Press the back button and you'll see probably your real IP.
Reproducible: Probably always (on my machine an Ubuntu 10.04 it worked pretty well)
Expected results: Get the fancy dialog shown that moving back to the previous domain in a different Tor state is disallowed due to some Firefox bugs.
I tested it shortly once with Torbutton 1.2.5 and the expected dialog popped up.
