When creating a bookmark by drag-n-drop to bookmark toolbar, the wrong favicon is saved. For example, the generic "Google Drive" icon is displayed instead of the more specific spreadsheet or document icon. This bug does not appear in release (88.0.1)

STR:

  • Open a specific gSuite document type
  • Drag and drop the url padlock onto the bookmark toolbar

Actual Results:

  • toolbar favicon is the generic gDrive icon, tab favicon is the document specific icon

Expected Results

  • tab fav icon and bookmark favicon should be the same, except for sizing

Note: I do not consider bug 1378362 to be a duplicate, as I'm 95% sure that drag-n-drop worked correctly earlier this year.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Bookmarks & History' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: General → Bookmarks & History

The code didn't change from release, what happens is probably that the 2 profiles have access to different icons. The tab and the bookmarks don't necessarily use the same favicon, due to various reasons.
There's a few fixes we can apply to improve the situation, but there will always be the possibility the icons differ.
