Container Mode Related Bugs

[ke-d]

• Adding and Removing Containers should affect the whitelist
  • Workaround is to export white/grey lists, restore default settings, reimport white/grey lists
• Cookie Cleanup breaks if the extension calls browser.contextualIdentities.query() (this is relating to the above since I do caching to avoid calling that function but the cache doesn't update after a change in Containers)
  • This most likely happens the user enables "Container Mode" for the first time or Restore Default Settings then enable "Container Mode"
  • • Related Bug: 1362928
  • This shows up as TypeError: cookieDomain is undefined[Learn More] in console
  • A workaround for this is to just restart the browser

Hey!

So in Nightly you can now subscribe to container events which should allow for you to monitor container additions or removals. See: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1344519

Also as a heads up:

• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1389265 promises for the apis will now reject rather than resolve null and false.
• https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1354602 containers will now be enabled for all your users as you have the permission.

I will see if I can get some debugging time on your bug you raised tomorrow.

Feel free to ask me any other container question you might have.

Thanks!
