I don't see what the popup does here. It does not seem particularly important to this. This seems like a variant of https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/6762 and that the parts of the domain that Firefox chooses to display could be improved.

This is a regression from Fennec - I'm pretty sure there much be a dupe (in addition to Chris's github issue)

Petru, Can you investigate this one, and check if the github issue mentioned by kevin is related to this. Thanks!

The ideal solution here is for GV to fix bug 1685152 and then port the Fennec or Desktop URL parsing code to Fenix/AC.

Seems like the issue Kevin posted would indeed resolve this and was something that Sebastian & Kate wanted to tackle.
If they don't have cyles to work on this now I'll look into it.
Keeping a NI here to know to follow this.

Agi's newly opened ticket would probably help with this.

Happy new year!
Opera has fixed the same issue in Opera Mini (Android). Here: https://twitter.com/Kirtikumar_A_R/status/1348569263548755971

Unfortunately this issue was already known to us (see the linked github issue) and is not eligible for a bug bounty.

This issue will atleast receive CVE, yes? Issue where it shows LTR instead of RTL. Thanks!

Removing my NI while we wait for https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1685152

GV would expose Gecko's URI API (bug 1685152) to Fenix frontend.
