Details

Easy to forget disabling "Disable popup auto hide" after use it. After that Firefox will have some strange behaviors. This option provides disabling it automatically when close Browser Toolbox.
This should be the default behavior as of Bug 1251658. Is there a case where you aren't seeing this?

Note that if you had set the pref previous to that bug landing it won't reset on its own so you'll need to manually reset the ui.popup.disable_autohide pref or toggle it in the BT UI once before you get the new behavior.

Thanks about Bug 1251658. After Browser Toolbox was closed with closing Firefox, "Disable pop up auto hide" is always enable.

Ah, I see this as well if the BT is closed by Firefox being quit. STR:

./mach run
Open Browser Toolbox 
Click the '4 squares' icon to disable auto hide
Quit Firefox
./mach run
Popups are auto hidden (should have reset)
