Bug Description

Firefox 18, raring.

Updated to latest raring yesterday (after a week of avoiding updates on holiday), and my webapps launchers are no longer indicating that the apps are running. Eg, firefox is open, gmail is active tab, gmail launcher icon indicates gmail is not running. Clicking on it opens a new window with gmail in it instead of focussing the current gmail tab, and then it still doesn't even indicate that gmail is running.

Confirmed by kenvandine also.

This week I did a quick test on Firefox 18 on Quantal and the Launcher icons behaved correctly. Just tested again with Gmail with a pinned icon: the browser/tab is opened, raised and closed correctly.
