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.
