Details

STR, on OS X: - Start a build of Firefox that's not the default browser (in my case, I started Nightly when I have Aurora set as the default browser) - Open preferences (about:preferences) - Check that the text says "Nightly is not your default browser" and there is a "Make default" button - Click the button and make Nightly the default browser Expected: - After the confirmation dialog is dismissed, the text updates to say that Nightly is the default browser, and the "Make default" button is hidden/inactive Actual: - No change. Refreshing (Cmd+R) about:preferences results in the expected behaviour showing, but I don't think a refresh should be necessary in this situation. As a user, my impression was that "Make default" didn't work. Clicking the button again also does nothing which feels kinda broken.
