jdm, is that content using absolutely position?
Hmm, I'm assuming so, but it looks like it's actually a special mobile menu or something.  I don't recognise it from Google Docs on desktop.  Unfortunately it covers up the rest of the content on the left side of the screen.
ben, is this a dup of 607417?
If it's position absolute, then no.
Summary: Google docs menus pop up incessantly in top left corner of page → Absolute positioned elements are not positioned properly in Fennec.
We need a plan for making this work or we need to drop this for Fennec 4. I don't think dropping it is a wise choice, so we need options.

Chris, Ben - Got a plan?
I don't understand step (2) above.

I see a "File"-style menu that appears at <0, 0> if I tap the "main" docs page.  If I tap then pan around, the menu stays up until I tap again (AFAICT).  I see the same kind of menu appear on desktop if I right-click (although the menu is broken in that FF shows its context menu on top of docs'), and the menu appears at the point where I right-click.

If there's a bug here, it might be either or both of (i) docs is somehow spurious detectly a "right click"; (ii) we're not delivering the right tap coords with the event used to detect "right click".  For (i), I would bet that google is catching an event that accidentally leaks out of the frontend; I remember there was some suspicious context-menu/event hackery uncovered in bug 609528.

AFAICT this isn't a platform issue.

Resolution: --- → DUPLICATE
Why is this a dup of bug 614380?  This bug has nothing to do with absolute positioning, AFAICT.
this should be a dup of 609866.
