A typical unwanted situation is when a user closed all browser windows, and wants to create a new one. This is simply not possible if e.g. the downloads window is still open. Closing all non-browser windows re-enables the menus. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open firefox 2.open the downloads window 3.while the downloads window has focus, try to open a new browser window (e.g. by clicking File - New Window) Actual Results: The File menu remains colored, but nothing happens. Expected Results: Opened a new browser window.
