Great list. My top votes: Synced Workspaces/Tab Groups, Customizable hotkeys, Multi-Account Containers for Android, and Mobile tab grouping. For Workspaces, please include cross-device sync (tabs, pinned, containers, default search), per-workspace storage isolation, import/export from popular add-ons (Simple Tab Groups, Sidebery), and a quick switcher. For hotkeys, add a full editor with conflict warnings, per-OS defaults, sync, and export. For Containers on Android, add site rules, per-container search engine, color/icon, and “open in container” from the share sheet. For the Homepage search selector, allow one-tap switch and hold-to-toggle. Sidebar AI chat should minimize to an icon, remember state on restart, and support a keyboard toggle. Menu icons and “disable profile badge” can be simple prefs. For “Open bookmark tabs in new window,” please support folder open with a limit to avoid tab storms. A Nightly → Beta pilot with notes on startup and memory impact would help set expectations.

Hey Jon,

Thanks for the update! I checked the recap again, but it seems the HTML issues persist. Unfortunately, with the current setup, it’s showing as invalid HTML, so there’s really no chance for proper rendering or smooth integration on our end. I’d recommend revisiting the formatting to ensure everything passes validation—this will save a lot of back-and-forth.

Appreciate your efforts and looking forward to a clean fix soon!

That's an okay list, but I'd like to add "Roll back the addition of AI to the Firefox browser".

[PHUCKOFF_AI]

I don't want AI BS in my browser, hence why I have been using Firefox. I don't want to try to find another browser that doesn't have AI because I like Firefox, but I sure the hell will if this AI crap is not removed. 

Firefox was working just fine without AI, and if you remove AI Firefox will continue to work just fine. I think keep pushing AI, and Firefox will go the way Netscape did....

I think Mozilla is doing the right thing with AI. 
Implementing features to stay relevant for users who want to use AI features in their browser but making everything Opt-In. 
So if you don't want to use AI simply just don't tick the checkbox in the settings. Nobody is forcing you.
