At work and also at home we use browser with tons of tabs opened. More often we use one tab as a source for our work in another tab. So we switch between tabs really a lot. Than we have some more programs. So by switching between several windows is quite complicated. 1) long distances for mouse to drive 2) moving eyes from system task bar at the bottom to the Mozilla's tabs at the top. So I suggest to allow user to drag (or somehow else) the tabs to the bottom part of the browser so the tabs would be closer to the system task bar.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Tabs are too far from system task bar even if they represents almost the same context handling.

Expected Results:  
Tabs are as close as possible to the system task bar to create something like a deeper level of context tree. You know Task bar -> Mozzila -> Tab with my stuff. Hierarchically close elements should be also geometrically close.
