User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0
Build ID: 20130826074752

STR and expected result:
* The Metro Firefox user opens Metro Firefox or opens a new tab to the Awesome (aka Start) screen.
* The Start screen presents a grid of tiles for each Top Sites, Bookmarks and History (as well as Remote Tab if you have synced). 
* These tiles behave just like the Windows native tiles - the user taps and presses to navigate to the pages they represent, and swipe selects or long-presses to see contextual actions for the tiles. 


Actual result:
When I presses Tabs from other devices, I didn't get any context menu saying "Remove tab"

The remote tabs grid in Start.xul and RemoteTabsView.js never got any contextual actions defined and hooked up. The expectation is that we should be able to remove items from this list. We need a block list that could follow the same pattern as browser.newtabpage.blocked / NewTabUtils that we consult before populating the start page grid. Then we need a delete action and clear selected action which can follow the same pattern established in TopSitesView, BookmarksView etc.
Adding shovel-ready flag, ping me if you want to take this and I'll be happy to walk you through it
