When I click or tab to a password input, the firefox wait 2, 3 seconds to set cursor on the field. The same problem to exit of the field.

The problem is only in password inputs, on click in others text inputs it d'ont occurs.

Firefox 60.0 64 bits on ubuntu 18.04.

Are you using any password add-ons/programs?

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?
