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

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

I recently had to move my home dir to another PC, and noticed afterwards that Firefox does not exhibit the same behaviour as reported here any longer. I cant explain why that is.
