Description

[Mark Banner (:standard8)]

We're getting intermittent failures of a test on Mac. This applies to all branches.

The specific failure mode is:

TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL |  test_right_click_deletion_one_other_thing_selected
  EXCEPTION: Desired selection is: 4 but actual selection is: 3
    at: test-folder-display-helpers.js line 1463
       Error("Desired selection is: 4 but actual selection is: 3")  0
       assert_selected([object XPCWrappedNative_NoHelper]) test-folder-display-helpers.js 1463
       assert_selected_and_displayed([object XPCWrappedNative_NoHelper]) test-folder-display-helpers.js 1591
       test_right_click_deletion_one_other_thing_selected() test-right-click-middle-click-messages.js 464
            frame.js 468
            frame.js 520

            frame.js 568
            server.js 164

Everything else passes.
