Details

When in menu bar hidden I find it difficult go and open Sidebars, as it is again under a sub menu. It will be nice if we can bring Sidebars menu items to Customize Menu Or if Sidebars submenu is first menu item on Customize Menu.
>uiwanted The plan is for the bookmarks sidebar to be accessible from the bookmarks menu (one sub-menu in, instead of two). The history sidebar is intentionally left out of the new design. We don't believe it is a very good interface for locating a single item out of history, but we will be keeping it around in Firefox 4 from the keyboard shortcut to invoke it, and from the optional toolbar button.
(In reply to Alex Faaborg [:faaborg] (Firefox UX) from comment #1) > The plan is for the bookmarks sidebar to be accessible from the bookmarks > menu When? Firefox 11 is around the corner. Is it really that difficult to add one menu option? The only way to access the bookmarks sidebar via the mouse is to place a duplicate Bookmarks button on the navigation toolbar, alongside the one that opens a bookmarks menu. This stinks.
Maybe not exactly the original issue as in bug 960198, but that bug did end up creating a new sidebars button that gives you the ability to toggle all the sidebars from a single sub-menu directly from the toolbars.
