It seems Firefox 57.0b3 is the first version with a fix for that.

This may have been fixed by bug 1400057. If this is the case, the following build should be the last build to reproduce the bug:
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/2017/09/2017-09-30-10-03-02-mozilla-central/firefox-58.0a1.en-US.mac.dmg
And this build would be the first one to fix it:
https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/2017/10/2017-10-01-10-03-35-mozilla-central/firefox-58.0a1.en-US.mac.dmg
Could someone confirm?

Thanks for checking! Could you run mozregression[1] to figure out when exactly this got fixed?

I do not know enough about mozregression to use it.

You should only need to run the following commands in a Terminal window to use mozregression:
sudo easy_install pip
sudo pip2 install -U mozregression
mozregression --find-fix --good 57 --bad 56
A number of Firefox versions will open in succession to narrow down when this was fixed. Simply type "good" or "bad" in Terminal based on whether or not a build reproduces the bug.

An uplift request could be made for the patch in bug 1394654. I don't know what the chances are that it will get uplifted. Alternatively, Tor may be able to take that one patch separately.
