Under Tools>Page Info in Firefox 2 there was a "Links" tab and now in Firefox 3.0b5 it's gone!

This tab was tremendously useful as a web development tool.  By clicking in the display window and then pressing Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C, all the page links could be copied into a text editor.  So many things could then be done with that data... and now it's gone!

Is this a bug or an intentional design change?  If it's intentional, I may need to maintain a separate system for running Firefox 2, because I really do need that function.

In Page Info, on the "General" tab there is a "More" button, but clicking it has the same effect as clicking the "Security" tab.  Is that intentional?  It seems peculiar.  Is that where the missing "Links" info should be perchance?

Not sure if this is a bug or dashed user expectations.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click Tools>Page Info
2. Look for the "Links" tab/icon
3. Click the "More" button
Actual Results:  
Clicking the "More" button gives the same result as clicking the "Security" icon; "Links" tab/icon is nowhere to be seen.

Expected Results:  
List of links present on webpage, as per Firefox 2.
That tab has been removed intentionally.
