(Whiteboard: [qae-p1][mozmill-1.4.2-])

On some content documents with a lot of dynamic content we have problems to get a correct element string for a node. As Mikeal proposed we could introduce jQuery to be able to get the element.

For now you can see such a behavior with the test posted as URI to this bug. It will work for branded versions but will fail for non-branded builds. Just execute it in Shiretoko.
In the last days we have discovered a lot of really strange queries when accessing e.g. elements in the autocomplete popup of the location bar. It would really help us when we have a simply way to fetch elements.

Talked with Mikeal about that a couple of times. Setting as P1 for next quarter.

Mozmill will reach its end of life soon. We are currently working on getting all the tests for Firefox ported to Marionette. For status updates please see bug 1080766.
