Yes, `list-style-image: none !important;` also fixes it.

I don't find that strange: Using either progress bar or animated PNG
throbber, the screen now has to be drawn at many frames per second. Once
you have to redraw, redrawing a bit more doesn't make a big difference.

Separetely: Also useful to know for posterity, the upgrade from
Thunderbird 60 to 68 made the indeterminate progress bar a lot more
jumpy (it looks like around 10 FPS while the original was much smoother)
- but to my surprise that increased jumpiness still didn't reduce CPU
usage a lot.

Title:
  Thunderbird: high CPU usage from progress bars

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird:
  Confirmed
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

  When sending a simple and short email with Thunderbird via SMTP the
  CPU is used intensively. This seems not to be necessary. If the
  sending failed and an corresponding error message dialog appears, the
  CPU is still being used. When pressing ok to close the error dialog
  the CPU is fine. This suggests it might be related specifically to the
  progress bar.  Such behavior is especially annoying on a laptop where
  you can hear the CPU usage because of a starting fan.
