    I don't think it's a bad thing to take good ideas from Chrome & imitate them in Firefox, but c'mon Mozilla guys ... put the bookmarks icon back where it should be! ;)

    Particularly in combination with the new Click-to-Play feature it's an important step. BTW: I've tested CTP with Noscript in FF 14, and even if you whitelist sites in NS, plugins are still blocked. That's how it should be. You have the choice to execute a plugin by clicking the respective placeholder, or you can choose to "Always activate plugins for this site".

    Don't know which version this is planned for, but there's a move to do away with even the option of having tabs at the bottom :D
    "because of its maintenance costs and usability concerns in relation to current and future UI, including Australis."

    Yeah... people forget that having a million options for a UI, while awesome, leads to a lot more code

    edit: I don't see this happening though. Not at all. They'll probably just change the tabs on bottom code so that it's easier to maintain.
