Note

  • When the user clicks the PiP's Mute/Unmute, Subtitle settings (or, in Nightly 112, the Fullscreen or seek buttons or the progress bar) and then he presses the Spacebar expecting it to Play/Pause, he will notice that the previously accessed button will be activated instead of the Play/Pause functionality.

  • No visual focus is observed, like when navigating using the keyboard.

This issue still occurs in Nightly v1013.0a1. Furthermore, I don't think it can affect thunderbird. Correcting status flags.
