I cannot reproduce this, but while using slack on a debug build, it hits
> thread '<unnamed>' panicked at 'Resolving style on element without current styles with lazy computation forbidden.'
as well, which is probably bug 1371450.

I see this too

Ditto. (Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.15063])

This is biting lots of moco people, since many of them use slack. The user impact isn't severe, but encountering the same issue wastes everyone's time, so we should get this fixed quickly if we can.

Hiro, do you think this is likely related to bug 1371450? Any guesses as to whether it's likely to be fixed by emilio's refactor in bug 1379505?

Yes, I believe so.  Clicking channel names on slack site causes the panic in bug 1371450.  And a half-baked patch to fix the panic I have causes another panic, it needs more work...

The panic was the same as what I commented in bug 1380001 comment 2, so it might be unrelated to the APZ bug.

I saw similar issue on fastmail. When I move mouse over the link they will jump to their original position.

Should I file a new bug?

Hi, Kan-Ru, if you are using linux, would you mind checking the result with the binary in this try? https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=1c624bcc882f1deee81b325f13ed659ea8d7ff26
If it works fine you don't need to file a new bug for it, it's definitely the same cause of this bug.

Great. I can't reproduce with this version so it's the same issue.
