Steps to reproduce:

browser.tabs.onUpdated.addListener() supports filtering for specific properties such as "favIconUrl", "status" or "title".

browser.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(handleUpdated, {
  properties: ["url"]
});

Actual results:

"url" is not allowed as a property filter even if the tabs permission is granted.

Expected results:

I cannot think of any reason why "url" shouldn't be allowed as a property filter.

Are you interested in submitting a patch once you're done with bug 1679688? I expect this one to be much easier.

Yeah, I already thought about it. I just wanted to wait if this behaviour was by design.

Hi I would like to work on this bug as my first contribution. It would be really great if you could mentor me on what all I need to setup to start working on this issue.

The patch for bug 1498432 will include a unit test that uses
tabs.onUpdated with the "url" filter for "properties".

The updated test here verifies that the tabs.onUpdated event does not
include other properties in changeInfo when filtering by "status".
