Steps: - create an iframe without src - create click event listener on any other element - set iframe src to on click to some url that supports "go to application" e.g. YouTube embed url

Expected: Iframe shows youtube video on element click

Actual: Firefox asks to open a new tab or open an app, and never shows this in iframe

Fix for developers: Recreate the iframe with the src

It only works on ff android, we spent literally hours to catch this bug

A forgot to say it only happens once per application run per site. So step 0 is to kill the firefox using android app info page
