The Settings GUI in #konform #browser was in need of some love and is now having a refresh. Several new knobs, some shuffling around to make things more cohesive and less scattered, and some edits of hints to hopefully reduce potential for confusion.

New options for:
- First-Party Isolation
- Enhanced #tracking Protection tweaking in Custom mode (useful mostly for FPI users)
- #webrtc and ICE
- #dom Push and its optional network connection
- #jit features
- WebAssembly (#wasm)
- Geolocation
- WebGPU
- Async callstacks support
- Persisting of browser history

Hints and the "advanced" options expand when clicking the "?" for parent option.

Still a bit hesitant on where global toggles for #webgpu and #webgl belong. And perhaps configuration for cross-origin referrer could also move to Browser Privacy controls?

Otherwise feels like things are coming together - What do you think? Anything you're missing or that feels out of place?

Konform Browser 140.7.1.100 has been released. What's new since last week:

- Closed vector of identity leaks and fingerprinting from unique IDs sent in HTTP headers by addons. This is our fix for #mozilla 'wontfix' bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1405971.
- #konformbrowser is the only #firefox derivative which protects against this under defaults.
- New user pref `network.http.addonOriginBehavior` can be tweaked to further change behavior and work around any breaking addons.
- A future update might change default to 3 (random), which could make #browser choice less fingerprintable. Reports on if any networked addons break (or not) under different modes much welcome.

- Security hotfix from Firefox ESR 140.7.1

- The new onboarding screen can now show detailed information on exactly what changes each #privacy preset has on #browser settings so you can make educated choice.
- Would love user feedback on if you think any of the presets should be tweaked or anything that's missing
