The new Extensions widget adds more clutter to my toolbar. Firefox should let me clean up the clutter:

  • Provide a way to move it to the settings menu.
  • Enable right click / "Pin to Overflow Menu".
  • Enable right click / "Remove from Toolbar".

Agreed. It would be nice if it had the same behavior as existing UI elements that are tweakable with "Customize Toolbar...".

I don't need nor want this icon. This isn't a functionality I would use daily, so it doesn't belong to the toolbar. It's already mostly redundant with the overflow menu itself that shows extensions.

It's already mostly redundant with the overflow menu itself that shows extensions.

Well, as usual Mozilla does not only add stuff nobody asked for, they ignore what users request and make things even worse. Since the last two Betas, extension are no longer in the overview menu and also cannot be added there again. Now you can only access them via that stupid add-on menu, that neither allows you to hide extensions, nor to change their order in the menu. And Mozilla keeps wondering why people constantly leave Firefox behind. Well, that's why. I really don't know how much longer I can keep using that browser, that gets worse and worse and worse with every update.

Since the introduction of the extensions button, we do not allow extensions in the overflow menu indeed.

It's WONTFIX's like this that are the reason why Firefox is losing users in record speed for years. This is the stuff that users want, this is the stuff that users ask for and all the get is the middle finger and even more new features nobody wants and nobody has ever asked for.
