User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:50.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/50.0
Build ID: 20161010144024

Steps to reproduce:

Many customers/user and also our own users, whos firefox is working with e10s report a crash of all selectboxes after some time. Sometimes after 10 minutes after starting firefox, sometimes after 2 hours. There is no special way to reproduce. 
But it won't happen if we manually disable e10s.



Actual results:

If that happend, even simple html-examples for selectboxes won't work anymore.
If i click on it it won't show up the options. All i can do is switch the options with the arrow buttons.


Expected results:

If i click on a selectbox it should show all options in a pulldown field and makes them selectable

Just an additional information.
If it happend once, that behaviour escalates into every tab and every website. All selectboxes won't work anymore.
Severity: critical → normal

Karsten, do you still see this problem in recent versions?

Actually we didn't get further reports about it so i can't really say. It might be because we published how to deactivate the e10s function on our server status site.
I also tried to reproduce it but couldn't get it to crash anymore. So might another bugfix fixed this as well.
Thank you.
