Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:68.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/68.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a window and click through a few links (so that you have history)
  2. Alt+Tab to a different window
  3. Move the mouse pointer over the first window (no longer focused)
  4. Scroll mouse wheel up and down

Actual results:

Firefox jumps back and forth in the history (as if Alt+scroll wheel was used).

Expected results:

The page should have scrolled.

Note that this is only an issue on Wayland. It seems the Alt release event is missed somehow.

(bug 1335347 feels familiar, but is probably not caused by the same thing)

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.
