Firefox image zoom UX (self.firefox)

Am I the only idiot who keeps doing this?

  • Looking at a random image in Firefox
  • Click the hamburger menu > Zoom [+] a few times
  • Click off the menu
  • Zoom level snaps back to 100%

Of course, the problem is that when I "click off the menu", I'm clicking on the image, because it fills most of the screen. If I do the exact same thing in Chrome, the zoom level does not change.

If "revert zoom on click" is considered a sensible design choice, then clicking again ought to revert to the zoom level I just chose.

Interesting. This only seems to happen if the image's original size is bigger than the viewport (with small images it's working as expected)
