This issue was investigated in https://launchpad.net/bugs/1835024, and we found out that the culprit is nsToolkitProfileService::IsSnapEnvironment()². To reproduce the issue, ensure that a firefox window is open, then from a terminal run `SNAP_NAME=foobar firefox http://example.org`. ¹ https://snapcraft.io/docs/snap-confinement ² https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/toolkit/profile/nsToolkitProfileService.cpp#l1838 Actual results: This opens the requested URL (http://example.org) in a separate firefox window, with a different profile than that of the already open firefox window. Expected results: This should have opened the requested URL in a new tab in the same window that was already open.
