No Resource URI Leak

As of PM 27, Jetpack style extensions are no longer supported. I have no problem with that, but one of the Jetpack/SDK addons is No Source URI Leak, that fixes a privacy bug in PM (and Firefox). This means that the bug is back when using PM 27. Are there plans to fix the bug in PM27/Goanna or is there another solution to fill the hole?

This isn't a bug in the software. You won't find much more out than if a script parsed the User Agent or searched our defaults in the source code repo.. Your user preferences (the ones that aren't default) are never exposed neither is any profile data of any kind.

I don't get why this is a thing people care about. Also, there are other threads relating to this.. Please find them.

The extension is jetpack.. It would need rewritten. Additionally, a scripted reply in broken English isn't very helpful.

In addition, the resource "leak" has been clearly discussed before and it's not leaking any private information, which makes this add-on at most a "would be nice if it worked".
Furthermore, the extension causes additional issues by blocking too much.
