[:Gijs (he/him)]

This only happens when doubleclicking (ie collapse/expand in quick succession) because doubleclicking also selects words - this works the same way elsewhere in text (also when clicking in whitespace adjacent to words!) and I don't think we should try to address this specifically in Firefox View. Ray, does that sound OK?

Thanks for clarifying that Gijs. If that is the case, let's not action on this.
