Description
Using Firefox:
- Go to any old page.
- Click on the Vimium popup and set or remove an exclusion rule.
- Save that. (The popup disappears.)
Problem: The focus does not return to the original window (as it does in Chrome). You have to click the window to get the focus.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the popup exclusion-rule flow in Firefox and compare what happens in Chrome after the popup disappears. Trace the popup close and focus behavior; done means focus returns to the original window without requiring a click.
