Firebox Notifications - bring forward to a relevant position

[drandre]

Because of the increased threats by bad actors leveraging the notifications feature for nefarious reasons,  we need to have an easy method to access Notifications within Firefox.  Currently, you need to navigate to SETTINGS, PRIVACY & SECURITY, PERMISSIONS, NOTIFICATIONS, and SETTINGS.  This is way too buried into the programming.  Users need to have an easier to access this feature.  It should be as relevant as the PLUGINS, THEMES, and EXTENSIONS.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

@drandre there's a potentially similar idea here: Want to see the history of push notifications in firefox. 

(IF I'm understanding correctly)

[drandre]

@Jon  not the same as my suggestion.  The notification history would be an important feature especially to help us techs discover what notifications our users see.

What I am stating is having the ability for users to discover WHAT they notifications they have subscribed to having an easy either button or area of the program. 

Currently, to discover these notifications, they are buried within the settings.

This button needs to be as accessible as the extensions, themes, and plugins button.  Maybe it can be also accessed there?

I hope this suggestion is clearer.
