When adding a custom filter - allow user to create new tags/folders from the filter window instead of going back to some obscure settings subsection somewhere. 

Nice to have:
* Right click on a message - create filter from / filter messages like these 
* Click on an email address - find all emails with/from this address 
* Since this is an email client, make it easy to share feedback by emailing some sort of address like tb-feedback@mozilla.org or something from the help -> feedback menu .

Enter the add-on's name tbkeys-lite or enough of it to limit the search results returned to a manageable number and press Enter or click the magnifying glass icon.

For example, i've added and precision f it's my choice for demonstration, of course, you have your choice

}
