The IE's users are accustomed to having buttons to access the history and their
bookmarks, why do they have to add them to Firefox ?
Shouldn't they be present in the default layout ?

Leaving these buttons out was an intentional decision, IIRC, and within the
mission statement of providing a browser that focuses the user on browsing. The
goal is to keep things out of the user's way by default an eliminate clutter
wherever possible.

Marking this one as WONTFIX, but thanks for the suggestion.
