Andy/Jorge, anything else we can do here?

Comment 4

[Andy McKay]

I don't think so, this isn't happening on a release version right?

Comment 5

[Andrew Overholt [:overholt]]

Doesn't look like it. I only asked because it came up in our weekly regression triage.

Comment 6

[Jorge Villalobos [:jorgev] (he/him)]

It's a nightly version, so I don't think we should track this unless it's got really high usage.

DownThemAll is not compatible with Firefox 57, which is latest stable version, so I'm closing this bug as WORKSFORME.
