[Bug 1485020] Re: firefox 40 shows a non-overrideable security error when talking to a captive portal

[Kyle Fazzari]

I like that Firefox tells you about this, but I don't think this should
be a non-overrideable error. This type of error should fall into the
same bucket as self-signed certificates: "Hey, we don't trust this
because of X. Are you sure you want to continue?"

I think that would be a decent fix for this without A) disabling this
feature all together or B) making Firefox figure out if its behind a
captive portal. I don't know if that would be a config change or a code
change, though. Thoughts?
