Recent versions of the pdf.js add-on (the mozilla project to add JS-based PDF parsing to Firefox, https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/) use redirects to URLs of the form "moz-filedata:(identifier)". These do not look like regular URLs. There seems to be no way to tell RequestPolicy to whitelist moz-filedata:*.
