We use the 'More options'/'...' icon button that opens up a menu panel throughout different features (Add-ons, New Tab, Logins, Address bar); this is a pattern we can capture as an official variant for the button component. Additionally, a11y has brought up the need for documenting and standardizing best practices behind using this design pattern, such as considering proper attributes as well as documenting best practices that explain we should avoid showing 'more options' only on hover (we're doing this in New Tab and the Address bar today, for example). Let's consider implementing this as an official variant for the button component, as well as including any additional a11y considerations / documentation within Storybook / Acorn docs.
