Bugbug thinks this bug is a regression, but please revert this change in case of error.

I'm fairly sure it has always worked this way.

This issue appears not to be a regression. It occurs ar far back as Nightly v36.0a1. I don't think there's any point into going even further back. NI me if further testing is needed. It was tested on Windows 10. Thank you for your contribution!
