So, this is known, and tracked in our bug tracker [1]. In the meantime, you can ask your users to use the drop-down in the doorhanger (the little panel that come down), they can whitelist your site this way (it says: "always share with this website" or something).

As you see in the bug (and in a duplicate [2]), this behaviour may change in the future. As you can understand, this need to be changed with care, it's rather easy to screw up, and could have serious privacy implication for our users (of course, your use case it absolutly legit, but websites get hacked, and some website are clearly malicious).

In general, if you want to talk to the team because you suspect a bug in Firefox, or anything, really, come in #media on irc.mozilla.org, or come and talk to us on the dev-media mailing list [3]. We don't bite, and love to hear about the crazy stuff people make with our APIs :-).

Keep up the good work !
