Thanks, could you try if that's still an issue in the current version? It works fine here...
Is that also specific to firefox?

Yes, it's still here. And doesn't happen in the Files application, neither in Thunderbird.

@ madbiologist

Yes, I have too. The default configuration.

Moreover I reinstalled Ubuntu, installed all the applications I had, and the bug is still there. Moreover I can reproduce it in a very different computer with the same set of applications.

So please have a look at the attached video and try to reproduce the bug exactly as shown. Thanks 😉
