User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:126.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/126.0
Steps to reproduce:
Remove 'Firefox View' from the top left in the 'Customize Toolbox' section. There should be no space between the first tab and the top left of the app when in full screen. Then, click 'Restore Down' in the top right (left of the 'Close' button).
Actual results:
Any size you resize the screen to displays a space in the top left before the first tab. Likely because the lack of a button in the top left hasn't been accounted for, so it still displays the space as if the 'Firefox View' button was there (this button is there by default when you first install the browser).
Expected results:
There should be no space between the first tab and the top left — the same as if you were in full screen.

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

I was able to reproduce the issue on both Win11/Ubuntu 22.04 using Firefox build 126.0.1, but I think this was the desired behavior as the issue reproduces with 115.0a1 and also with 102.0a1(20220526213638) that does not have Fx View implemented.
Marking as new for engineering input. Thank you.
I believe this is just the drag space introduced back in Photon (see for example bug 1355764, bug 1369786 and bug 1404497).

Ah, ok. So you are saying this is an intentional feature to allow the user to drag the tab?

Yes, this is an intentional design choice - but not to drag the tab: to drag the window (in the event that the tab strip is full)

Ok, thanks for your response. What's the correct status for this now? Resolved?

I think this bug gets moved to RESOLVED INVALID, which I'll do now. Thanks!
