This issue is affecting the Firefox 57 build. I strongly recommend uplifting this fix in 57, too, before the merge. This will improve the feature's UX.

The fix from comment 20 is a bit involved and is part of adding the doorhanger look. If we were to uplift something, it would probably be a smaller css-only fix adjusting the spacing / sizing of things.

I suppose who is to make the call if https://bug1405296.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=8914719 is acceptable or must fix for 57?

Comment 6

[Tim Spurway [:tspurway]]

This bug does not affect the usability of either the context menu or the info doorhanger - both controls are still easily accessible.  Because the patch that fixes this is non-trivial and consists of other changes that are unrelated to this bug, I think it's too risky to uplift at this point in the cycle.

Based on won't fix, not tracking this for 57.
