Stop making unnecessary UI changes.

Every time I see that Firefox has made an update I get a feeling of dread wondering what other portion of the (Good! Useful! Functional!) UI that you're going to mess with next and make worse in the process. Additions are fine, as long as you have the option to disable them. Changing something in the UI that already exists is loathsome and it can take hours or days before someone figures out how to us CSS to revert the unwanted and unasked for change you've made, if they even can.

Amen! Today once more, I get an aneurysm because I am greeted with changes I haven't asked for, that I will have to once again invest god knows how many hours trying to figure out how to revert to the way I had it before. I've had to deal with this **bleep** for almost 5 years now, every couple months anew. Just stop it please! I can't take this anymore.

By the way crap like this is why we don't do updates and rather "expose our system to risk".
If you preach safety, stop cornering us to go the unsafe way.
