Modified title string precedes the page's title and Firefox's title

[mechalynx]

Not sure if this is intentional or unavoidable, but it makes it hard to use a custom title without pushing the page's title outside what's visible on taskbars. It used to follow Firefox's title, which I think was optimal, especially for version strings.

Mind attaching a screenshot? I'm on MacOS so I don't have a window title at all. CC'ing @kyoshino

Sorry for the faded colors, the window is out of focus, but it should be clear enough.

That's with ${Version}-${OS}-${Processor} / ${AppBuildID} for the title string.

Ok, so that's basically defined by the WebeExtension API and nothing we can change. It has been implemented as prefix only via https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1333376. Feel free to raise a follow-up bug for Firefox. Once such a feature is available we could also implement it. Until then I will have to close this issue. Sorry.

Yeah, I see the same behaviour on macOS. Can't fix it our side.

[mechalynx]

Roger that, no worries, I expected it to be an API thing anyway.

Whereby the only option for now might be an experiment. But we aren't that far yet with the extension.

Mind keep this issue opened (with "can't fix" tag), for general public information?
Also, homepage needs an update:
https://wiki.mozilla.org/QA/Automation/Projects/Addons/NightlyTesterTools#Variables
Some variables are no longer working, perhaps the table should have the version information of the addon where each variable is available or not.

Sure, I added a new blocked label to indicate the status. For the wiki update can you please file a new issue? Thanks.
