Uploading a file on a site that accepts files dragged from the Windows explorer fails to upload the file to the site and results in the site being replaced with the file being displayed via the file:/// path.

One day regression range - https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/pushloghtml?fromchange=a98a1d78817f&tochange=58eca03214a6

Could use a inbound regression range. I did take a quick look at the bugs listed and Bug 975688 stands out.

Do you have a testcase for this?

Nothing minimal. Checked a couple image uploading sites such as imgur.com and minus.com 

Str
* Load minus.com
* Drag an image file from Windows explorer to the site
* Drop the file

Results
* image is loaded as a file:/// uri

Expected
* image is selected as an uploadable file by the site

This is probably more fallout from bug 923054.  Is it reproducible on tip?

That's the big question.  What exact build was comment 0 filed on?
