Can you describe this bug a little more here? I'm not sure I quite understand from this summary.

I have a keyboard attached now and can easily write a hopefully understandable STR

1. Load a website
2. Scroll down until the "awesomebar" toolbar hides.
3. Tap and hold to select some text

Result: The toolbar with the copy/cut/select all icons slides into view from the top, pushing the whole page downwards.

Expected: The page isn't pushed downwards (Chrome works that way).

Thanks for the clarification, yes I see this. I can't find if this has been filed before. I am assuming here that this was introduced with bug 768667 and is not something new.

This is definitely not a gfx issue, but an issue with how this feature has been implemented. The text selection bar could easily slide over the page instead of being laid out in-line with it, similar to the dynamic toolbar.

Changing the component back and unassigning, there's no platform work to be done here.

Pruning some old bugs (part 2) either:
   ) obviated by new Core/Layout AccessibleCaret implementation in m-c and stable, targeted for 47.
   ) Or no longer being observable.

If you still see what you consider incorrect behaviour with the new version, please file a new bug targeted there, and attach a test-case or example link to help things :-)

This one was actually fixed by the dynamic toolbar rewrite in bug 1180295.
