Blue Dot Bouncing From Side To Side

more options

Firefox Version 57.

When a tab is open and a webpage is opening, there is a blue dot that bounces from side to side on the left side of the tab as a webpage is loading and it changes to the webpage icon once loaded.

Is this 'bouncing blue dot' new to version 57 or have I just not noticed it before?

I use the custom rule, but it doesn't work while Firefox starts.

I've noticed that. I have Firefox set to restore my previous session, and with 12 windows (each containing many tabs) to open, there is a lengthy delay before the custom style is applied.
