626886 - OS X should only use an arrow for the List all Tabs menu

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Theme, defect)

Description

[Alex Faaborg [:faaborg] (Firefox UX)]

Currently OS X has a glyph of a tab with an arrow in the lower corner for the List all Tabs menu.  Advantages of switching this to just an arrow:

-Sleeker / it isn't a compound icon (and everyone knows how much I love those compound icons :)
-Switching the position based on if tabs are on top or not (hanging up/down) would be problematic
-An arrow is more consistent for Firefox across different platforms

The UX team is very eager to get this bug landed over the next few days in order to make Beta 11.  If anyone can get a patch for this bug posted soon, we will push hard for reviews and approval (even though this isn't blocking).
