Hi, thank you for report. I tried to test the issue on HTC Desire 820 (Android 6.0.1) and LG G4 ( Android 6.0) on latest Nightly (63.0a1 2018-07-26) and Release (61.0) and I can't reproduce it. Due to long time from report and actual version the issue probably it's fixed. Can you please retry on latest Nightly and see if the issue it's still reproducible?  

Thanks, 
Stefan.

Yes, I'm sure that this issue was since XUL based extensions, I even can't test it properly because it's not based on WebExtensions APIs.

I think this issue can be closed. 

Thanks for heads-up, totally forgot about this issue.
