Details

(Whiteboard: dom-lws-bugdash-triage)

Seen from the latest Gnome (but other Desktop Environment and notification systems might also be affected): when some Firefox tab is emitting a notification, the text in the notification is the one of the focused tab in the same window.

Instead, it should display text from the tab responsible of the notification (or no text and just Firefox as it's done on mac iirc, which would still be less confusing that unrelated text).

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Toolkit::Notifications and Alerts' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.
