Per my understanding, there are only three actions possible: blocking a request ("block"), blocking cookies in a request ("block-cookies"), and hiding an element ("css-display-none"). This bug (and patch) addresses "block" and "block-cookies" for pings. I don't see how "css-display-none" can apply to pings.

That said, my understanding of this code is limited, so I could be missing your point. Can you elaborate on what other content extension features need to be considered here?
