Tiny text boxes, lingering on screens like ghosts, exorcised after 2 decades.

    Do you know if this is actually been reported as a bug? I’ve seen it myself, but just got annoyed and didn’t report it or anything.

      That’s a great question actually, I can’t find it as an outstanding bug, but Mozilla has multiple support articles on it leading me to wonder.

      Do you have any suggestions on how I could search?

        You can search for it on webcompat, linked to from Report an issue with a website that I use. I did a search within there and it may be related to or the same bug as this.
