Since when was removing widely-used functionality without good reason 
considered progress?  Can you quantify the potential performance increase, 
increase in user satisfaction, or any other benefit that might come as a result 
of this?  Because fixing annoyances with something as simple as 
#TabsToolbar:not(:-moz-lwtheme)::after{box-shadow: none;} should not require an 
entire extension to be installed.  Also, taking pages out of Chrome's book 
w/r/t removing options/customizability isn't the best idea.
