As we discovered on the call last week, I think a lot of us have issue with
the new text introduced into 5.2.2... I don't personally place much stock
in that. Personally, I have no desire to try to list what origins comprise
my first party, it's a potentially unbounded set. (think things like
username.googleuserdata.com, or the complexity that arises each time I add
a new TLD, e.g. google.search)
