User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.13; rv:57.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/57.0
Build ID: 20171112125346

Steps to reproduce:

Important: Issue only encountered on Mac 10.13.1 (not tested on Windows / Linux derivates). Tested with Netflix and YouTube.

1. Add a second desktop
2. Open 2 Firefox windows, one on each desktop (full screen does not matter)
3. Watch a video on the first one and do not move the cursor (full screen does not matter)
4. The cursor should disappear becuase of step 3
5. Now switch to the second desktop using the multi touch gesture
6. The cursor stays hidden while a firefox window is focussed. Only through clicking an other window or the finder or hovering the doc the cursor will be visible again


Actual results:

The cursor stays hidden while the second firefox is active.


Expected results:

The cursor should be visible again after movement.
Maybe this issue encounters on Windows 10 Desktops or Unity workspaces as well. Can somebody try this? I don't have any of these operating systems installed currently.
