1250885 - When Firefox blocks redirect or reload page, move the focus on the "Allow" button

Status: UNCONFIRMED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[mindrones]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:44.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/44.0
Build ID: 20160210153822

Steps to reproduce:

- Enabled the preference: "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page"
- clicked on a link that redirects to another location


Actual results:

Firefox correctly shows a bar on top of the screen with an "Allow" button before showing the page itself.


Expected results:

It would be nice to move the Firefox focus on the "Allow" button, to let me just press "Enter" instead of having to move the mouse there and click.

This could steal a focus and/or allow spoofing if a site trigger it in a timely manner. For example, a focus event on form controls.

Forgot to mention that this applies also when the page has a Flash component and we have to choose between "Continue Blocking" and "Allow..." (there might be other similar cases I can't recall at the moment), so it'd be useful to move the focus between 2 buttons using TAB, to be able to do "TAB ENTER" if we want to "Continue Blocking".
