By the way, our support article (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/web-apps-firefox-windows) mentions pages along with websites, so it would be great to clarify that.

What's more, the UI tooltip says "Add tab to taskbar" (not " Add website to taskbar"), which, from my point of view, means the url should not be truncated.

Firefox Nightly.
A test.

Screenshot1.
https://www.twitch.tv/directory/category/art Add tab to taskbar.

Screenshot2.
Website pinned.
The path portion of the URL gets truncated.

I edited taskbartabs.json with the desired URL, and save.

Close window.

Screenshot3.
Start, website pinned, apparently it works, the path portion of the URL gets not truncated.

I was able to reproduce this issue on Firefox 144.0 on Windows 10 so marking the bug as NEW. In my opinion, this should be classified as a defect so updating the type accordingly.

Status: UNCONFIRMED → NEW
Type: enhancement → defect
Ever confirmed: true

:Ina truncation is intended, so moving this back to enhancement. Generally, this is something we would like to support eventually, but the default case will remain truncating to the domain.

Severity: -- → N/A
Type: defect → enhancement
Priority: -- → P3
