Webextension panel does not auto-resize according to the URLs length

[vasilicatamas]

Steps to reproduce:
1.Install the following webextension as a temporary add-on:
history-deleter.zip
2.Navigate a bit through google images in order to gather some browsing history.

Expected results:
The entire content is correctly displayed in the panel.

Actual results:
When the URLs are too long the webextension panel does not auto-resize according to the links length and the last 5 visited sites are not entirely displayed.

Additional notes:

• This issue reproduces on Firefox 51.0a1 (2016-09-05) and Firefox 50.0a2 (2016-09-05) under Windows 10 64-bit.
• Please see the attached screenshot:

Yeah that's not great but I wanted to keep the add-on really simple and the focus of the add-on is on the history deleter API not on the length. Saying that if, someone wanted to send a really simple pull request that fixed this, that would be cool.

Will my PR be merged anytime soon? Or does it need any changes? @andymckay

@vasilicamihasca , could you verify the fix, please?

[vasilicatamas]

I am still able to reproduce this issue on Firefox 51.0a2 (2016-10-14) under Windows 10 64-bit.

I am not sure but it might be a regression here. Because I noticed that on Firefox 49.0.1 successfully appears a scrollbar and the URL’s are correctly displayed.

[wbamberg]

Yes, I see this too. I think we should file a Firefox bug for this. @vasilicamihasca , since you found it, do you mind filing?

Thanks @vasilicamihasca ! Since this is confirmed as a Firefox bug, we can close this. Thanks also @kartik95 for improving the look of the panel in the example.
