I'm not sure this is Firefox's fault, and if it isn't i'm sorry for having wasted you time.

The problem: When you are in Fullscreen on Youtube and then wanting to exit the Fullscreen mode i often quickly swipe my mouse into the right-down corner and click the left-mouse button (this works on my Chrome). In at least my Firefox this doesn't work, when putting the mouse in the right-down corner and click the left-mouse button the video plays/pauses. Maybe make it so that is exits fullscreen instead?

Thank you!

Hi, I at least on my system have a Exit in the lower right corner that is visible along the bottom tool bar within the Youtube video that holds on the left side the rewind/back, play, fast forward, sound, video length and time and right sight holds Closed Caption/Subtitles , HD settings, Exit. As per this URL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XV6icYRj0g&t=0s&list=PLn5Z_P9AWdlAeBwOcNIKa5msRJSEtarYe&index=1

I can also use the Escape key or mouse to the top center to exit full screen so 3 ways.
