Security and Privacy Information "feature" driving me nuts

Because the stupid question mark cursor has its active point at the bottom and I don't see very well to tell its changed until remembering a second too late I constantly click on the top domain listing of stuff in the popup and get sent to the far end of my tabs, that doesn't even pop back to the one I was on when I swear at it and close the new tab. This is ABSOLUTELY MADDENING, and I really want to turn the so-called "feature" off, or at least just use a normal arrow or hand cursor. Please, please, someone tell me threre's a way.
Browser is Firefox on Ubuntu Linux w/Cinnamon DE, though the same behavior also annoys in Manjaro with XFCE.

It looks like if you were to click the Cancel button in the dialog, then you are returned to where you were.
If you simply close the Tab, then you're left at the end (of your tabs).
(FF has many instances, that act in a malicious way, totally whacking focus from where it was.)

To get a hand cursor, you could try this code in
userContent.css -
Code: Select all
@-moz-document url-prefix("moz-extension://YOUR-UUID-FOR-NOSCRIPT/") {
.site .url .domain {
cursor: pointer !important;
}
}
replacing YOUR-UUID-FOR-NOSCRIPT with the "Internal UUID" for NoScript as shown in about:debugging > This Firefox
This requires about:config > toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets set to true and requires restarting Firefox.

Thank you, thank you, both of you. Not perfect solutions, but enough to be a functional work-around.
