Comment (by ChatTor):
Sorry for the delay, IRL can be busy. It doesn't seem to happen with
Firefox 45.7, and my webcam is USB, so I don't need tape personally.
It doesn't make much sense to me either, but, after playing with it more,
it seems that the light flickers any time a menu resembling the right-
click menu is drawn (Click the NoScript icon, click the HTTPS Anywhere
icon, right-clicking, hovering over the NoScript option in the right-click
menu), but not for fancy menus (like when you click the 3 lines to get
into Firefox's settings or when you click the gear icon in a new tab).
Perhaps the bug is tied to the menu draw function of Firefox somehow? I'm
not familiar with the source of Firefox, so I (unfortunately) can't be
more helpful here.
Also worth mentioning, I tried removing all add-ons and restarting the
browser, and the light still flashes when I right-click and the right-
click menu opens. This occurs both in the body of the browser as well as
the address bar part of the browser, but not when I right-click the window
title area drawn by X and get my system options for things such as "Move
to desktop".
