1752496 - If confirmation dialog opens while moving tab the active tab can't be closed anymore and no tabs can be moved from the original window

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1721308

(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

Description

[stefan.rakel]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:95.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/95.0

Steps to reproduce:

I was moving a Zoom Join Tab from one window to another via drag and drop and was in the state where the blue insert marker is shown on the window being dragged to. At this time the "Open external link" Dialog opened which didn't correctly cancel the drag&drop (still showing the insert marker) but didn't allow me to complete it either. I could choose to open the link externally. After this I can't close the current tab in the origin window from where the tab was dragged from. I can not move any tabs either. I can close all tabs but not the currently visible tab in this origin window.

Actual results:

I can't close the current tab in the origin window from where the tab was dragged from. I can not move any tabs either. I can close all tabs but not the currently visible tab in this origin window.

Expected results:

The drag&drop of the tab should be cancelled correctly and I should be able to reorder and close all tabs again in the origin window.

I also just noticed I can't use the back,forward and reload buttons of the gui in the origin window.

[BugBot [:suhaib / :marco/ :calixte]]

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

Thanks, Alice, I think this is just a straight up duplicate.
