After using the new tab sidebar for a while I have found that the X (close tab) button is annoyingly easy to accidentally click when attempting to switch tabs, especially when a volume button is covering part of the tab icon.

Could there be an option to hide the close button. I can still close tabs by middle-clicking on the icons or using a keyboard shortcut.

In 30-40% cases instead of clicking a tab I close it, because (x) suddenly appear.

Either option is needed or some logic, .e.g when width is minimized do not show close button (x).

Has an option been implemented? Realistically, how difficult is it to implement it for Firefox developers - 10 minutes, or more?
