After updating to FF 35.0, the full screen won't stay! It used to stay in full screen no matter what, unless I change it, but now, every time after I go to desktop, it will revert back to maximised window. Help please?

Please be warned that this will change the default of your installation, but I do not know how this will affect other functionalities of the browser.
