The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::DOM: Security' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.

Is that a recent regression?

Please try to find a regression range (pushlog URL). For example:
$ pip3 install --user mozregression
$ mozregression --good 2021-01-01 --bad 2021-10-20 -a https://example.com

I don't care if it is a regression, please make it at least configurable with settings or something.
Thanks.

I don't care if it is a regression

This is a community-made browser.
Either you help, or it won't be fixed. I don't have this problem, the correct cursor (finger pointing up) is displayed.
Please try to find a regression range. Which Linux distribution, version and desktop environment are you using?

Redirect a needinfo that is pending on an inactive user to the triage owner.
:stransky, since the bug doesn't have a severity set, could you please set the severity or close the bug?
