Hi,

since firebug came out it has made my life so much easier, a big
thanks for that!
With the recent updates I've seen two things that had me raise my
eyebrow..

In UI design the top left and top right corners are "worth more" in
screen real estate than other places.
Typically you'd want to put actions there that are used most often.
Firebug nailed it by putting the inspect action left and the X for
closing firefox to the right.

So whats up with the latest ui updates? Putting a menu in the left
hotspot and putting "turn off firebug for this site" in the right
hotspot??!!

I understand the troubles of positioning the menu.. its a tough one to
place properly.
But making the X perform nonstandard behaviour is bad imho.
x=close .. everywhere.. its what people expect..

close is used about 50-500 times a day by me, depending on how much
work I do on html/css..
"deactive firebug for this site" is used about once every month by
me.. on rare occasions
Why would anyone choose to give the rarely used option a more
prominent position while the more commonly used option is given a non-
standard, harder to click position?

I'm not trying to criticize though.. to everyone who has contributed
to this amazing extension, thanks a lot!
I know ui dev is not easy, and its hard to please everyone.

...But please, think about it.
