Reproduced this using Firefox 38 beta 3 (build ID: 20150409144858) on Windows 8.1 32-bit.
The error is displayed on youtube videos while switching to Fullscreen and back.

For me it is also triggered for every frame during a window resize...
Looks clearly an easy to reproduce bug affecting at least version 38.
I'm testing 38 since beta9, still happening on candidates.

Sorry, don't have a lot of time to investigate this right now. Dão should be a good person though.

Probably a widget bug? I know nothing about nsITaskbarTabPreview.invalidate.

No idea what the error is, would be nice to know what that result code is. I think front end should treat this as a passive error though -
