Steps to reproduce:

Open: https://codepen.io/DevVersion/pen/LYPXWgB

Click on "Simulate click" button.

Actual results:

Notice that the alert opens up. This indicates the button "click event listener got fired. This is inconsistent with the previous behavior in Firefox 64.

All versions above Firefox 65 seem to emit the click event.

Expected results:

The click event should be cancelled since the button is disabled. This would match behavior with Chrome.

It's the expected result from bug 329509.
