Go to Preferences/ Privacy and Security / Form Autofill / Enable Profile autofill. (default in Nightly)
Make sure you have at least two saved profile.

[Steps:]
1.Open Firefox.

3.Double click in the Tel textbox.
4.Drag the tab out from the FF window.
5.Double click in the Tel textbox from the new window that was created. 
6.Drag the tab back to main FF window.


[Actual Result:]
The autofill will not function when the FF tab is dragged back into FF(step6).
The input field that was focused last before re-attaching the window is focused when dragging the tab back.

[Expected Result:]
Autofill should work.

[Note:]
Losing focus to the field and refocusing will repair the autofill functionality.

Hmm… this problem only seems to happen if/for a focused field in the new window.

This may be related to the timing of the attach method after swapping docshells.

I probably wouldn't block on this.

Closing this as WFM as it is no longer reproducible with Firefox Nightly 133.0a1 (2024-10-16) using macOS 14.7 and Windows 11.
