Core Apps » Orfox Private Browser

I notice that when I use Orfox (version F-droid latest) that connections do not close when I tell them to by clicking the 'x' in the address bar, but rather continue (i.e. if I enter "website.com" in the address bar and hit enter, I will still be downloading the page at that URL even if I explicitly click the 'x' while the page is loading). Even closing the tab doesn't stop a page from downloading! The aggregate result is a lot of unnecessary data usage and delays in navigating the web due to having to wait for established connections to complete!
