Firefox's Network Monitor does not show blocked requests

Question

When I browse a web page, some requests are intentionally blocked by:

  1. Firefox's content blocking
  2. Addons (I use uBlock Origin)

However, those blocked requests are not shown in the Network Monitor at all. Is this a bug, or just an unfinished feature?

I ask the question because Chrome's Network Monitor does show blocked requests and labels them as blocked. Sometimes it is useful to navigate the details of requests even if they are not actually sent.

Simple Example

  1. Choose Strict for the content blocking settings.
  2. Open the Network Monitor.
  3. Visit https://stackoverflow.com/.

The site information will show that www.google-analytics.com is blocked, but the request will not be shown in the Network Monitor.

This is not implemented as of Firefox 68.

Some work on this was completed for Firefox 69, but there's a follow-up bug, which is still not fixed as of now.
