User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; rv:84.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/84.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Go to https://t.me/themes
  2. After the site loads, Firefox opens a dialogue titled "Allow this site to open the tg link?"
  3. Click on the "Always allow https://t.me to open tg links" checkbox, then on "Choose Application".
  4. Firefox opens another dialogue, titled "Choose an application to open the tg link.". Click on "Cancel".
  5. After step 3 a permissions icon right to the padlock icon and left the site address appears. Clicking on it shows that https://t.me is now allowed to Open applications, specifically, tg:// links.

Not quite sure whether it's a bug, but that type of permission ("Open applications") is absent both from the "Page Info (Ctrl+I) -> Permissions" and "about:preferences#privacy -> Permissions" lists.
