Alice0775 from the mz forums found this.

1. New profile, start firefox
2. Tools > Option > Main > Startup, set to "Show my home page" and "http://www.yahoo.com/"
3. File > Exit > Quit. (exit Firefox without save session )
4. Restart firefox (yahoo should be your starting page)
5. Middle-click homepage icon. Yahoo homepage opens again in a new tab
6. Double click on some normal text
7. Right-click on the highlighted text

Expected:
- You have a context menu with Copy menuitem

Actual:
- You have a different context menu
- Additional: Now also try right-clicking on a bookmark and note a lot of the options are unexpectedly greyed out.

This has the same range as bug 429172 and in fact bug 429172 comment 20 mentions a similar kind of context-menu tomfoolery.
