For +Firefoxen prior to version 58.0 some legacy code as imported from +an older version of FirefoxDriver was in use. + +With Firefox 58 the interactability checks as required by the +[WebDriver] specification are enabled by default. This means +geckodriver will additionally check if an element is obscured by +another when clicking, and if an element is focusable for sending +keys. + +Because of this change in behaviour, we are aware that some extra +errors could be returned.
