Firefox Title Bar inaccessible, window position issue since recent update

[DamageFF]

The most recent Firefox updates have basically broken Firefox for anyone who has the Title Bar turned on. Afer an update Firefox auto-positions itself at the top of the screen, but apparently assumes the TItle Bar is turned off (as it is by default) as the window poition is too high by EXACTLY the height of the title bar, rendering the Close, Minimise and Restore buttons compeltely inaccessible, as they're off the top of the screen.

That means you're forced to either quit using menus (if turned on) or right clicking on the taskbar, or using keyboard shortcuts to resize or close the app. Each time Firefox updates (and it's done it at least twice this week) the problem comes back, so not only have you not fixed it, these constant updates keep causing the problem to recur.

Please fix this fundamental flaw. Evidently someone who works for you doesn't use the Title Bar and has made changes that assume everyone else is the same. They're not. I have the title bar turned on for a reason, and losing the ability to close, minimise or resize as a result is a pretty major bug.

Press F11 a couple of times.

Literally zero help there. I don't need a one-off fix, I need a permanent fix.

Yes, it's the same issue, as is everyone constantly spamming "press F11" like it's any sort of solution. That's like saying "my car won't start" and everyone going "just push it downhill until it does". Short term thinking is of no help to anyone, but hey, if it raises awareness of this problem which apparently has been around for TWENTY DAYS now, it's better than nothing, I guess.

I have tried it (even to the point of deleting all registry entries associated with mozilla/firefox), and it doesn't work. The title bar still fails to appear, even though the checbox is selected: 

 icon > More Tools > Customize Toolbar > Title Bar (checked)

Mozilla broke something during the most recent update, and they don’t seem to have any interest in fixing it. It’s been about six weeks now, with no further updates/patches, aside from the lame “press F11” workaround. I agree with DamageFF - Fix the problem!

The bug is fixed on Beta. It likely won't be uplifted to Release though, so that would mean it will be Jan. 13.
