Device is a Samsung Galaxy S II. I am using today's nightly. STR: 1. Go to http://media.tojicode.com/q3bsp/ 2. Wait (takes 30s to load or so) 3. WebGL demo starts playing. 4. Press button to return to android menu. 5. Music keeps playings, sucking the battery dry
This is indeed a serious problem I think. The main issue though is on the UI side - what do we want to do? Should we freeze content when we are in the background? That will break certain websites and things the user expects to work (like if the user is playing a radio station and expects to continue to hear music). I recall we had several general discussions about this in the past, but don't remember any final decisions being made.

Moving all open Core::Widget: Android bugs to GeckoView::General (then the triage owner of GeckoView will decide which ones are valuable and which ones should be closed).
