They should be using pretty similar notification bar styles (at least visually) so I'd expect them to behave similarly in terms of markup and a11y state, so if/where they do not that might give a hint so as to fix at least the announce-y-ness without necessarily changing focus. WDYT? The popup blocker, i.e. from [this test website](www.webroot.com/services/popuptester1.htm), is announced in the recent Nightly 129.0a1 as expected - as an `role=alert` element. I think this may have been fixed with the bug 1894535 that made a `moz-message-bar` component an alert, but I am not sure if the notification in question ([possibly, this code](https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/4a78812619a63c4ace10ff4269432f73b64d5d67/browser/components/BrowserGlue.sys.mjs#1670-1679)) is actually using `moz-message-bar`

In general, I agree, if this notification would be an `alert` and is announcing itself on page load, the bug is fixed
