Steps to reproduce:

I have reproduced this in KWin/XWayland.

Try to move a bookmark a folder up, ie. from a subfolder to a parent.

Actual results:

The menu closes, the bookmark remains at its original location and the browser doesn't accept keyboard input until a restart.

Expected results:

This is an old bug, so I can't find the exact commit that introduced it: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=9d96d2c96d8fe1d9365fdaee30d8fda048c48aa1&tochange=b7c21d63bd623860c099c96b5648bc07c5bc0a63

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

Component: Untriaged → Bookmarks & History

It would be helpful to know exactly which "menu" you are seeing this in.

However, given that bug 1805414 was in this range and also affected some bookmark menus, moving across to Firefox:Menus.

Component: Bookmarks & History → Menus

The "bookmarks toolbar items".

Hello! Thank you for submitting this issue I have tried to reproduce the issue on my end but unfortunately I wasn't able to with firefox 138.0a1(2025-03-07) on Ubuntu 22.04.

Could you please answer the following questions in order to further investigate this issue?

  1. Does this issue happen with a new profile? Here is a link on how to create one: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-remove-switch-firefox-profiles
  2. Does this issue happen in the latest nightly? Here is a link from where you can download it: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/
  3. Do you have any addons installed? If yes could you please list them?

Yes, I can reproduce it on Nightly with a new profile. You need to start the browser with the MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=0 env variable to force it to use XWayland. To reproduce the bug, move a bookmark in the bookmarks toolbar items to a parent folder. This might only affect KDE/KWin.
