The website mozilla.github.io/policy-templates makes mention of the FTPProxy option that can be set for Firefox. However the admx file under github.com/mozilla/policy-templates/blob/master/windows/firefox.admx makes no mention of that setting. Is the documentation in the admx file incomplete or am I missing something?

Firefox does not show validation error for a title that is too short

On Mozilla's bug reporting website, the bug title must contain at least 6 characters. If I enter a shorter title, for example "bug" (3 characters), and press the Submit button, nothing happens. The problem occurs when using the website in Firefox. I tested the exact same scenario in Google Chrome. In Chrome, after pressing Submit, the page automatically scrolls slightly upward to the title field and displays a validation message indicating that the title must contain more characters. In Firefox, there is no visible error message, no scrolling to the invalid field, and no other indication of what is wrong. As a result, it may appear as if the Submit button simply does not work. Steps to reproduce: Open the bug reporting website in Firefox. Start creating a bug report. Enter "bug" in the title field (3 characters). Fill in the description if necessary. Press Submit. Observe that nothing happens and no validation message is displayed. Expected behavior: Firefox should display the validation error for the title and ideally scroll to or focus the invalid title field, just as Chrome does. Actual behavior: Nothing happens after pressing Submit. The validation error is not visible, and the page does not indicate that the title is too short. Firefox version: 153.0.4 The same form works as expected in Google Chrome.
