How can I exclude particular sites from tracking protection?

I use private browsing all of the time, which means I have tracking protection always enabled. So far, I had been fine with this. A few days ago, however, Gravatar avatars disappeared from WordPress blogs. It appears that gravatar.com is in the base-track-digest256 blacklist. The mozstd-trackwhite-digest256 whilelist seems to enable gravatar.com content embedded in sites such as polldaddy.com (see https://github.com/mozilla-services/shavar-prod-lists/blob/master/disconnect-entitylist.json), but not in WordPress blogs.

How can I enable gravatar.com content in WordPress blogs? I think one option would be to add a small whitelist of my own, but how could I do this?

Unfortunately (unless something has changed), exceptions to the Tracking Protection feature are on a tab-by-tab rather than a source-by-source basis. You can use an anti-tracking or ad-blocking extension to gain more control over exactly what is blocked and unblocked. For example:

There is a preference in about:config (urlclassifier.trackingWhitelistTable) with a couple of list names, but I don't know if it would be possible add a list of your own.
