Details

Currently the close button is visible only on a limited number of inactive tabs, the number is depending upon the screen width( presumably ) but it will be convenient if the close button was visible on all inactive tabs. This will let the user close any tab without loosing focus from his current tab. Since we scroll through the tabs( unlike chrome where all the tabs are crammed into the same view), the size of tabs remains good enough to include a close button.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=865826#c0 removed the browser.tabs.closeButtons pref. Could you please suggest an alternate method to implement it's default value of "1: Display close buttons on all tabs". ? The comment also suggests that the state is in fact the default state, in that case is there a way to make the close button visible on all the tabs ?

You can reduce browser.tabs.tabClipWidth (needs a restart to take effect).
