When browsing in tabbed windows, only the first (far left tab) window's security
info is shown, whether via the security icon @ the bottom right (assuming your
not in full screen mode) or via clicking the security icon or via "View Page
Info". I.e. if you go to a secure site in a tabbed window, you cannot tell if it
is really secure.
I wasn't sure whether to put this under general browser/PSM/NSS...
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch Mozilla
2. Ctrl+T to open a tab window
3. Open web site in new tab (preferably a secure site)
4. Click the security info icon @ bottom right of your screen (assuming you're
not in full-screen mode)
4b. Or, instead of step 4, right click the web site in the 2nd (or higher) tab
and select "View Page Info"I
Actual Results: Of clicking security icon:
Shows page info of first tab window instead of current, viewed window
Of right-clicking & selecting "View Page Info":
Shows the frame-info for current page, but the "Security" tab shows info for 1st
tabbed window & NOT the current, viewed window
Expected Results: If clicking security icon:
Show security info of current, viewed window
If right-clicking & selecting "View Page Info":
Show page info (including correct security tab info) of current, viewed window
This bug makes it impossible to see security info for any tabbed windows & know
whether you're connected securely to a site. It almost seems like the tabbed
feature treats the different tabs as framed children of the first tab, thereby
not showing info (since they are children). *shrug*

This screenshot shows the Security info tab, if clicking on security icon OR
right-clicking & selecting "View Page Info". Note that it is incorrect
information.
