Hi Liz,

Is this fix scheduled to be uplifted to Beta?
On latest Nightly(45.0a1) and Aurora(44.0a1) this issue is fixed. 
Thanks

This missed the 43 build, as I wasn't tracking it and no one requested uplift. Is this a regression and if so was it recent?

Hi Liz,

This is not a regression, the feature was uplifted to Beta with the present issue when Aurora 43 merged to Beta 43. 
 In my opinion this issue may impact end users since long term history - older than 6 months - will not be displayed when this beta goes as Release candidate.

margaret, I'm not considering this a release blocker. What are your thoughts on this issue? How serious is this for users? Is it intentional? Thanks.

I don't think this is a release blocker. Sadly, I think this just fell through the cracks.

We could take this as a ride-along if we have a dot release, but otherwise I think it's fine to wait until 44.
