in the ticket it closes and includes the necessary testing evidence such
as recordings and or screenshots.
Note
Low Risk
Small behavioral change limited to MV3 UI configuration after
failed/dropped transactions; risk is low and mainly involves ensuring
the action popup still points to the Activity tab without unintended
side effects.
Overview
Prevents the side panel from reloading on failed/dropped transactions
by removing the MV3
browser.sidePanel.setOptionsupdates thatpreviously changed the side panel path to
?tab=activity(and back whencleared).
Failed-transaction handling now only updates the extension action
popup (
browser.action.setPopup) while keeping the badge count/clearingbehavior unchanged.
