Upgrade StorageBeta connector unable to capture web snapshots in Firefox
The latest release of the beta connector (5.0.98beta1) seems to be unable to create web snapshots in Firefox Nightly. All pages are affected. https://example.com/ can be used as a test page.
When you try to capture a page with web snapshot, the usual Zotero in-page UI appears. An item is correctly created in Zotero to represent the page, but the web snapshot process never completes. The "Snapshot" line in the in-page UI remains dimmed indefinitely, and the snapshot is never attached in Zotero.
I have checked in a fresh Firefox profile, and the issue reproduces there as well.
The beta connector didn't seem to log any errors during this process. D843523590 has the debug logging from my testing attempts.
The stable connector (5.0.97) creates web snapshots correctly, so I have switched back to that for now.
