### Bug Description

A couple of days ago, a new browser based on Firefox, Zen Browser, was released. It has a feature called "Zen Sidebar," which is a mini version of a normal browser tab. At first, I thought it was a problem with their browser, but after some research ([see this comment](https://github.com/zen-browser/desktop/issues/645#issuecomment-2309347670)), found out that the problem comes from this extension.
