Can you get a leak report with a clean profile (only DOMI installed)?  I'm seeing a lot of leaks from other exensions, and there are a few objects that the DOMI may be leaking, but I cannot be sure.

DOMi and Talkback are part of the distribution; but of course I'd have to have at least Leak Monitor installed. I'll try to do it, starting Firefox with

   firefox -no-remote -ProfileManager &

at the bash prompt. Any results will be reported here.

<shrug /> Couldn't reproduce it with only the distributed components + Leak Monitor.

Note: the chrome URI above was entered in the DOMi input box between the spyglasses and the [ Inspect ] button, not in the Location Bar in the main browser window. In the original case, it had caused a strange popup from Tab Mix Plus, which seemed to believe we were restarting from a crash.

What chrome uri did you enter?

I think those leaks were from other extensions (I saw a lot of entries from two of them at least).

As shown under "URI" here at top, chrome://browser/content/browser.xul

Do you get those leaks when you close out the browser window normally too, or no? I would think that you would, but I'm curious.

No I don't. In fact I only got that alert that one time, and I install the 1.8.1-branch nightlies every day.

Based on the leak results, nothing seems to be caused by DOMi, so I think this bug might be RESOLVED INVALID
