Hi,

I can still reproduce this bug on 85.0a1 (2020-12-10) (64-bit).

Regards, Flor

Thanks, however no need to keep repeating it if they are still regressing. This is a lowish priority bug for us - a lot of users are unlikely to be doing that whilst a page hasn't yet loaded.

The severity field for this bug is set to S4. However, the following bug duplicate has higher severity:

• Bug 1717038: S3

:standard8, could you consider increasing the severity of this bug to S3?

For more information, please visit auto_nag documentation.

S4 is fine for this. As per comment 3, users are unlikely to be hitting this much and it doesn't block them.

Tentatively setting as P5 for now - we don't get many reports of this, and it seems that most users would wait for the page to load enough before adding. We may need to reconsider later.
