New tab with information about the uninstallation process is not opened #1708

Description Clicking on the Ghosty icon to open the full info page initially does not open it. I have to open all the tabs and add a new one - after that a new tab from the add-on opens. In addition, if you click the extension icon several times, exactly that many new tabs will open.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open any website, for example: https://ghostery.com
  2. Open browser settings
  3. Click on the Ghosty icon
  4. Nothing happens
  5. Open all tabs and click on the '+' icon
  6. A new tab will appear with the information from "Uninstall Ghostery".

It must be a Safari iOS bug related to the event listener triggered when the "window" view is not active - it is done by clicking on the native menu element, not on the web page.

I found that behavior too, but from the code perspective, there is nothing else we can do.

OK. The issue will not be fixed.
