Since landing bug 1465911 [1], CPOWs [2] are only functional on our testing
infrastructure. In normal builds that we ship to users CPOWs can be
created, but no operations like property lookup can be performed on them.

CPOWs continue to exist, because a lot of tests still depend on them. We
can't disable CPOW creation in user builds, because the context menu passes
them from the child to the parent and back like a token.

This is a significant IPC attack surface reduction.
