Looking at https://twitter.com/ericlaw/status/1118167961829871622 and generally looking at what collapses and who is making space for whom in the URL bar (and round it) when a window is resized to decreasing width, it would be nice if we would give security indicators and the actual URL a higher priority.
Things we could do:
- remove the container name, just keeping the icon
- we could collapse all browserActions (Firefox Accounts button, Library, etc.) into the overflow icon.
- collapse all pageActions (screenshots, web compat report, bookmark etc.) into a "..." that consumes all.
I don't think its an important security bug, but Eric has a point.
@jkt: I'm told there is a meta bug which this should block but I couldn't find it. Will you mark it as dependent please?

I can't find a dupe but this certainly has been raised before (perhaps on the github wrongly).
I previously suggested:
- We drop the container name before we remove the icon (hovering could have a tooltip to the name).
- We elide or remove EV before eliding the URL.
I think this got de-prioritised due to containers adoption however it's certainly possible without.

I agree that just dropping the container name is a good option, though I'm not sure anyone is available for doing that work at the moment.

Marking this as verified on:
Ubuntu 18.04, macOS 10.13, Windows 10 using:
76.0a1 Build ID 20200331093527
75.0b10 Build ID 20200326191140
with the note that the bug 1624576 is a bit more affected when adding the container tab icon - maybe an improvement sugestion would be adding transparency to the container icon in this case?
