Affected versions

  • 84.0, 85.0a1(2020-12-09); 78.6.0 esr;

Affected platforms

  • Windows 10, macOS 10.15, Ubuntu 20;

Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch Firefox, enable the DevTools inspector and change to Network monitor tab;
  2. Access any webpage and click on any request listed;
  3. In the Headers view, click on the Block button;
    enhancement suggestion:
  4. The Block button changes label to Unblock;
  5. Press the "Unblock" button (pressing it would remove the request from the RequestBlocking panel and update the label back to Block);

Actual result

  • once Block button is pressed, that's it; the request is added to the Blocking list and the button can be pressed again;

Regression range

  • not a regression;

Additional notes

  • setting it up would probably mean sync-ing the button as well to have the label updated when the request is removed/added directly from the RequestBlocking section as well;
  • S3 as suggested severity, as it would make the sections a bit more interactive;
  • attached recording to illustrate the issue/reason for the suggestion.
Has STR: --- → yes

I like the idea, thanks for the report Cristian!
