...and this: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=570366#c1 "This option isn't supported, last I checked" What a reason. They decided to remove it because it "isn't supported"? So much for "open source" being better at "do what users want"... if you personally don't need that option, fine, don't use it. But don't go taking away things that a lot of others want. I get extremely angry whenever I see discussions like that. You can read and even participate in them, but your opinion is ultimately useless because you're not part of some privileged group who makes all the decisions about what to do with Firefox. It's no better than proprietary software where your bug reports are similarly ignored, besides being possibly a little bit easier to patch. |

If the actual backend doesn't support that option, it's indeed a problem that the UI offers it, especially if it's causing a bug. The question if it should be supported is unrelated to that, and not really a topic for that unrelated issue. I've certainly had my own bad experiences with Firefox issues, but that's not a good example.
