You know in Firefox you can hold shift and right click and it will bypass any event handlers on the website. It will just give you your FF context menu.
Does this include the pausing of videos opened in a background tab until the tab is first focused? I recall that it was held back from the expected FF 53 release and expected in 54, but I'm not seeing anything about it.
Edit: Just tested, and it seems like this is not included yet again. Will it come out in FF 55, in... 6 weeks?
Edit 2: Not sure if this would reach anyone who can fix it, but heads up that both links about the multiprocess firefox point to the Mozilla blog, not to medium as stated in the second link. Is it supposed to be this page linked to from the blog post? [0]
Edit 3: Plenty of people seem to be suggesting this is available already. I think that has been the case for awhile now, but not by default. It was something that was mistakenly specifically called out in the release notes for 53. I thought it was a much large discussion thread, but this is the comment I was recalling [1] with a reply linking to the bug report [2] which claims it was added to the FF54 release notes 3 months ago, but has seen action since including discussion in another bug just two days ago.
