I can still reproduce this on the latest Firefox versions, screen recording: https://streamable.com/nsswyw
Should we re-open this?

Yes, thank you for double-check this issue.

This seems to be an intermittent failure due to a race condition between the “Firefox autofill after pageload” and the “webcontent reset user input after pageload”.
At the moment we are evaluating if we should not do autofill at all (Bug 1579298 and Bug 142754).
If we implement the feature change in the end, this bug will not occur anymore.
