Can't Drag Select Scroll Down in Mac Firefox 14.0.1 Full Screen

With the new Firefox 14.0.1 for Mac with full screen mode, I can no longer drag down and select text that is off-page. It won't scroll at all.

However, dragging up works. Historically, dragging and selecting in Firefox full screen (Firefox's old implementation) was excruciatingly slow, but now it appears they've fixed that in the up direction at the expense of the down.

Here's the old bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644621

Let me know if this can be fixed easily.

Thanks

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Thanks for your prompt response.

I tried safe mode previously, but not without the theme and hardware acceleration. I've done all three changes just now, but the drag down select still does not work in full screen mode.
