Steps to reproduce:

visited a website serving CBT with java - the CBT content would be downloaded and then a local java (server) application would be launched. CBT would then be accessible via the local server.


Actual results:

since the java application is supposed to be run in the background, a tiny or no placeholder is available. Click to play the java plugin not possible.


Expected results:

depends on the design of the click-to-play, but expect to have alternative options (toolbar or something) for such scenario.
Should this be fixed by bug 932854?

Probably yes. The bug report doesn't have enough details or a URL to actually verify, though.
