column 1, where the element "%linksDTD;" (without the quotes) is marked in the
first column with the percent sign.

3.Select Options
4.Press last button 'Tab Options'

Does it happen if the extension is removed/disabled?

If it doesn't, then this is an extension bug -- not a browser bug.

This is a bug in the tab prefs overlay.  Not a firefox bug.
