1418208 - "Customize" screen: Group items by which extension/addon they come from (or the browser itself)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1388154

(Firefox :: Toolbars and Customization, defect)

Description

[nyanpasu64]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; rv:52.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/52.0
Build ID: 20100101




Expected results:

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1398636
"In the "Customize" view, available items to be placed in the toolbar are not understandably ordered."
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1388154
"Right now you can re-order the items in the customize palette. You probably shouldn't be able to do this."
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1352693
"[meta] Re-work customize mode, the overflow panel and the hamburger panel"

My idea is that the "customize" screen's widget/item pool should be split up into sections, each of which contains items from Firefox, or a specific extension. Maybe the sections can be sorted in alphabetical order.

User agent is incorrect, I had disableFingerprinting enabled and am currently on 57 on this PC (developer on main PC).

Unfortunately, it's not really helpful to have ~5 different bugs on file for the same thing.

I'll try to get a detailed specification from UX to solve the issue here that different people want to solve in different ways - but that everyone's identified so far.
