Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Repro steps:
Set your preferences to zoom out oversize images (can't find it in Preferences, is it always on? I recall it used to be an option).
Navigate to an image which is larger than your current window. Your cursor should display as a magnifying glass with a plus sign inside, indicating that clicking on the image would zoom it to 100%.
Instead, right-click on the image, and pick "Properties".

Actual result:
The "Width" and "Height" properties are those of the zoomed-out image you see on your screen, not the actual image's properties.
For comparison, zooming in and selecting Properties again displays the image's real properties.

Expected result:
I would have expected the image's native dimensions. That would be consistent with the file size field, which shows the size of the actual image data, not whatever the zoomed-out image turns out as in memory (at least the byte count is identical to that in the downloaded image file, for one I tried).

I'm afraid I don't understand why this is "incomplete". Care to elaborate? Do you need something further from me?

this bug won't be fixed by ubuntu and is unlikely to ever get fixed in firefox 2. Please open a new bug when final firefox-3.0 is out and you still have this issue.
