I use Firefox Nightly (not Fedora provided of course), and I do not see
the behaviour you describe, still the old behaviour.  Are you sure it's
not something else?

My FF version: 41.0a1 (2015-06-27)

Since I'm using the Fedora version, the best person to answer this question would be whoever packages Firefox. I'm too lazy to look at the patches in the srpm.

Having absolutely zero knowledge of that, my semi-educated guess would be that Mozilla's nightly build targets GTK2, while the Fedora Firefox package targets GTK3.

Which would be the right decision for Fedora, without doubt. Presuming that this is the case, the problem is not that Firefox is targetting GTK3 in Fedora. The real problem is that Gnome has jumped the shark.
