"IBM iNotes on Firefox 26 is Inoperable" -- FIXED

Here is another great reason to upgrade to 8.5.3 FP6 or 9.0.1 IF1 -- it addresses an iNotes issue with the latest Firefox release.The official Fix List for 8.5.3 FP6 is listed here, but omits any reference to this iNotes issue. You have to dig further and go through the product fix list located here under Upcoming Releases, to see mention of the SPR for this problem. If you have Domino 9.0.1, then the respective documents are a bit more challenging to locate, but you will find technote 1657963 here with all the pertinent information.
Here is the excerpt covering this bug.
SPR # NKEY9DCQP8 reported an issue that arises when trying to open tabs in IBM iNotes using Firefox 26. This issue has been fixed in Domino 8.5.3 fix pack 6 and 9.0.1 IF 1.
Updates made to Firefox 26 have resulted in user invoked actions failing in certain scenarios and iNotes reporting that problems have occurred. Firefox has removed the getAnonymousElementByAttribute method (details) that iNotes was previously using when creating any new managed tabs. This causes certain operations such as opening existing entries (messages, calendar entries, etc.), composing new entries (Message, Calendar Entry, etc.) or opening new areas by the area switcher to fail once a message is being read within one of the opened tabs.
Here is the error on my iNotes Console
