A similar bug that we fixed before. If we pick this up, let's find a way to add a test to avoid another regression.

Triage: this is a low priority task for VPN, but we believe this is a general problem that all mobile teams will face by using org.mozilla.fenix.settings.ComposePreference, so this might be good for the team owning Settings to consider how to solve this holistically.
