This is a consequence of the fix for bug 1334354.
I haven't tested it but from looking at the code, it is consistent with how the pre-permissions add-ons notifications work as well.  But moreover, I think it is our only reasonable option for fixing bug 1334354.

I am not sure this is a wontfix. Persisting the doorhanger when the user has navigated away to a different page is not great, particularly when the doorhanger is not even aligned at the right place (see attached gif)

Markus, what are your thoughts?

Wow. Thank you for the needinfo kraj.
That should not happen! As soon as the user actively confirms a new website the install should be canceled. Like install is canceled when I click on any link on the website that takes me to another page. Andrew, what can we do to resolve this?

Investigated further and noticed the following:

 - The install doorhanger also persists after navigating to a new url with extensions.webextPermissionPrompts set to false

 - Clicking “Install” button which appears in installation doorhanger for extensions.webextPermissionPrompts set to false does not install the extension: https://www.screencast.com/t/Yp2DjUABho0b

 - Clicking “Add” button which is displayed in installation pop-up for extensions.webextPermissionPrompts set to true, successfully installs the extension: https://www.screencast.com/t/IHEg27G8dbqt
  This issue seems to be regressed by Bug 1328304:

This will get fixed by 1340538 (there's still a slight flicker which I'm not a big fan of, so we might make a followup bug there).
