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

:sefeng, since you are the author of the regressor, bug 1792110, could you take a look? Also, could you set the severity field?

Thanks Alice for moving this issue back into the right bugzilla component!

The same bug seems to be also reported as Bug 1846714, the screencast included seems to be the same one described in STR provided in comment 0 and the regressing range point to the same regressing bug.

I think we may close one of these two (Bug 1846754 and Bug 1846714) as a duplicate of the other one.
