Symptoms have recurred but they're not specific to Firefox. 

Without reopening this bug, just using this comment as a small dumping ground
whilst things are fresh in my mind …

Waterfox 56.2.7.1 bugged at e.g. 

<https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/aouzd7/is_there_a_way_to_remove_the_current_tab_name/>

– so I launched Firefox and found it similarly bugged at the same URL. 

Mozilla/Gecko only? No. 

I launched Chromium, similarly bugged at the same URL.

Smells like an occasional, transient issue involving the desktop environment or
windowing. 

Operating System: FreeBSD 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.5
Qt Version: 5.12.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.54.0
Kernel Version: 13.0-CURRENT
OS Type: 64-bit
Processors: 4 × ACPI CPU
Memory: 15.9 GiB of RAM

Compositor settings for desktop effects: XRender, crisp.

Probably unrelated, but memorable (extraordinary): half an hour or so ago,
whenever I clicked the scroller in the scroll bar of Firefox, the window
disappeared. Window regained, after each disappearance, by a simple click on
its icon in the (Plasma) task manager. 

Firefox at the time was probably run with this command: 

firefox --safe-mode -p test
'https://web.archive.org/web/20190210074311/https://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/aoquet/webextensions_performance_reliability_in_busy/'

Transient; not currently reproducible. 

Also at that time in Surf (maybe browsing the same URL) I had a strange grey
opaque overlay at the bottom part of the scroll bar area, behind which the
scroller could be slid. 

Transient; not currently reproducible.

Enough dumping. It's not a Firefox bug.
