Details
User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:123.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/123.0
Steps to reproduce:
Nothing in particular. Just waited for a notification to happen (also works when doing a "Take Screenshot" to force a notification).
Actual results:
The notification stole the focus, disrupting any other action. It is also being treated as a new window rather than part of the current window.
Expected results:
The notification shouldn't steal the focus and let any other actions proceed as normal. Preferably not be treated as a new window.

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

This is bug 1878037, and happens only with alerts.useSystemBackend
disabled. Can you check whether it's disabled? Thanks!

correct,
alerts.useSystemBackend = false
We don't support that configuration with high priority, do you have a specific reason to disable that?

System's alerts are obnoxious in size and sound, as well as not respecting the focus (for example: popping on top of a full screen game), and in some cases dismissing itself before they can be clicked.
