Hey Tomislav,
I think that there is a good chance that Bug 1581859's rewrite of the WebNavigationContent.js frame script in C++ may have fixed this, can we close this as fixed by Bug 1581859 or verify if that is the case?

Hey smaug, it looks like WebNavigationContent was completely rewritten a few years back. Are you still seeing this?

I don't recall seeing this when I was tweaking content process launch around last Christmas.
Marking WFM for now.
