Hi Gijs can you please take a look at this issue ? The File Path only shows the "file://" not the entire path, is this ok ? also the body text from the modal still has the text: "Allow notifications like this from to take you to their tab" and I think the "Allow notifications like this from file:// to take you to their tab" is the correct one ? shouldnt the file:// text be added to that checkbox label ? Ill attach a screenshot.

Hi Gijs can you please take a look at this issue ? The File Path only shows the "file://" not the entire path, is this ok ?

Yeah, I can live with this. It might be nice to show a local file path in the platform-appropriate way (backslashes on Windows!) but I really don't think optimizing file:// pages should be super high on the agenda. Maybe file an enhancement request for this.

(Really, we need a single utility to transform a principal or URI into a reasonable user-facing string rather than having to keep re-inventing this wheel, but that's another topic...)

also the body text from the modal still has the text: "Allow notifications like this from to take you to their tab" and I think the "Allow notifications like this from file:// to take you to their tab" is the correct one ? shouldnt the file:// text be added to that checkbox label ? Ill attach a screenshot.

Ugh. Yeah, that should be a separate bug (ie second follow-up, not the same as the previous point) that we should probably prioritize slightly more highly given that the current state is actually not useful.

Thanks for checking this so quickly.

Added Bug 1707208 and the enhancement Bug 1707212 as separate issues.

This issue is verified as fixed in our latest Nightly build. Will this be uplifted to beta ?

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco]]

The patch landed in nightly and beta is affected.
:enndeakin, is this bug important enough to require an uplift?
If not please set status_beta to wontfix.
