When testing mouse hit-testing on the XUL periodic table (http://www.hevanet.com/acorbin/xul/top.xul) and in Firefox's preferences dialog, I've noticed that getChildAtPoint() sees through tabs. That is, it often gives the accessible for the backmost tab, instead of the one that is currently showing.
I believe this is a DUPE. Need to search through https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/showdependencytree.cgi?id=342901&hide_resolved=1

Is it related to bug 343904? I couldn't really understand that bug.
I think a proper fix for that one will fix this as well.
