[Bug]: Firefox on GitHub Actions closes when attempting to click input[type=color]

[sdvg]

Version

1.49.0

Steps to reproduce

1. Review the test case at https://github.com/sdvg/repro-playwright-input-color/blob/main/tests/example.spec.js
2. Review the failing test run on Github Actions: https://github.com/sdvg/repro-playwright-input-color/actions/runs/12164726706/job/33927073866

You may also fork the repository or run the test code in another headless environment.

Expected behavior

The browser should not close and allow the test to continue.

Actual behavior

The browser closes as soon as page.locator('input').click() is executed.

Additional context

The error specifically happens with Firefox on GitHub Actions. Presumably on other headless environments as well.
It could not be reproduced on a (headed) MacOS environment.

This has been fixed upstream and should be fixed in Firefox v135 which is either Playwright v1.51 or v1.52. Closing by that since we also added an downstream regression test.
