Details

When a POST request starts in one process but is redirected to another, we don't send along its POST data. See bug 1435615 comment 6. Mike, please feel free to correct/change this bug. I filed it in Firefox :: Tabbed Browser since that's where bug 1376895 is filed, but I'm not sure whether that's the best place. (In reply to Mike Conley (:mconley) (:⚙️) (Totally backlogged on reviews and needinfos) from bug 1435615 comment #11) > Can you please file a new bug to correct this, and mark is as depending on > bug 1344465? And then perhaps reference that new bug here? We should > probably get this all fixed up once bug 1344465 gets fixed.
