1619442 - Style status panel with visibility: hidden when not shown.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Eitan Isaacson [:eeejay]]

Currently the inactive #statuspanel is styled with opacity:0 when hidden.

Accessibility APIs exposed opacity:0 elements and most screen readers will read such content.

It would be useful if it is styled as visibility: hidden, so it is fully purged from the tree.
