Steps to reproduce:

  1. In System Preferences > Trackpad > Point & Click, enable "Force Click and haptic feedback"
  2. In System Preferences > Trackpad > Point & Click, disable "Look up & data detectors" and set it to "Force Click with one finger"
  3. In a Firefox window, visit http://example.com/
  4. Force click on the word "information" in the link "More information…"

Actual results:

When the Trackpad is released, Firefox follows the "More information…" link in the current tab.
