Details

Open a new tab. Type "Black Cat Cafe" into the urlbar and return. Click on a link. The Back button is disabled and does not re-enable.

Happens with several recent builds

This appears to be linked to using Facebook Container.

The relationship to Facebook Container is likely because Facebook Container closes and re-opens the tab with a different userContextId using SessionStore. The issue from bug 1672175 is possibly the cause, as it could lead to the history state in sessionstore being wrong when doing this close/re-open triggered by the add-on.

I was able to reproduce this by using Facebook Container, doing a search for "Black Cat Cafe", and quickly clicking on a Facebook link.

This repros even without Fission enabled. It's a bug with the container addon: https://github.com/mozilla/contain-facebook/issues/24.

In case anyone runs into this, there's a workaround in https://github.com/mozilla/contain-facebook/issues/335#issuecomment-491410896:

As of now, the only immediate work around is to re-open your previous tab (that was closed by the add-on). To do this, use the shortcut Command + Shift + T. This will open up the previous state, giving you access to that specific tab's browsing history.
