1180821 - Experiment with adding "Zoomed View" trigger to Action Bar

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox for Android Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Anthony Lam (:antlam) Find me, @antlam on Slack!]

We could look at adding a button in our Action bar to trigger this "Zoomed View". 

User would trigger this via long-press and we'd need an icon in the Action bar. Ideally, this would trigger over highlighted text/content.

Icon designs to follow.

If the user is triggering via the long-press, wouldn't a context menu appear? And then the user could pick "Zoom View" (or some text) to turn it on.

I guess I should be clearer... I meant for long-pressing "plain text" and not links (since you're right, that _would_ trigger the context menu)

Yes, the idea is "in the action bar". Though, I want to reiterate that this is an experiment to increase visibility of this feature - not a UX requirement
