Firefox for Android

Steps to reproduce:

Firefox Android has a home Button on the LHS of navigation bar. Clicking on this takes you to the Firefox Homepage.

Actual results:

While this works perfectly, clicking on the navigation bar achieves exactly the same thing - it shows the Firefox Homepage in a popup, allowing you to click on a shortcut or to click on the homepage to see all the shortcuts.

Expected results:

I would recommend the homepage icon be replaced with a bookmark icon as this would be far more useful as this is missing from Firefox Android (without using the RHS menu) and because the Homepage can be accessed via navigation bar. It just seems redundant.

I think it would better if add an option so that user could choose show it or not.
