Public bug reported:
Steps to Reproduce:
* Make sure the close tab button is on the right side of the browser window
(about:config: browser.tabs.closeButtons = 3)
* Open a lot of tabs (empty tabs by pressing Ctrl+T many times is enough)
* Press the mouse button to the 'X' icon and hold it
-> one tab closes
-> sometimes even more tabs close at this time. It feels like holding Ctrl+W
on the keyboard but I'm only using the mouse. *
* Release the mouse button (not too fast after pressing it)
-> another tab closes
Solution:
The close action should be executed only once, either when pressing or by
releasing the button.
*) I have no clue about the behavior that multiple tabs close when just
holding the button. It remembers to Bug 683159 but that one seems to be
explicitly for TouchPad users.
