855603 - "Show/Hide new tab page" button has a selection border (focus ring)

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox :: New Tab Page, defect)

Description

[nealp9084]

Attachment: Selection_001.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:22.0) Gecko/20130325 Firefox/22.0
Build ID: 20130325170119

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open a new tab
2. Click on the "Show/Hide the new tab page" button, which is located on the top right of the page
3. Move the cursor away from the button but don't click anywhere else


Actual results:

The button has a selection border around it


Expected results:

The button should not have a selection border. You wouldn't put one on the reload or tab group button; this button is no exception.

Maybe that's an accessibility bug of Tab Groups.  On the other hand, it may be enough if the button gets a focus ring when selected using keyboard (in which case it's GOOD that there is a ring).

Mass-move to Firefox::New Tab Page.

Filter on new-tab-page-component.

Dão, is this a valid issue? Reading bug 418521 and using moz-focusring on about:newtab this doesn't sound broken to me but I have no idea what our behavior should be.
