Show / hide button for bookmarks bar

[Karlsman]

It would be great to have an optional button to show or hide the bookmarks bar .

There are optional buttons to open the sidebar and the bookmarks menu, which can be added in the customize section, but both menus are cumbersome to use .

The other setting to show bookmarks only on new tabs, well, that is a very silly option, to be frank ...

Alternatively, being able to choose a keyboard shortcut other than cmd+shift+B ( Mac ), or to be able to switch the shortcut with the current one for the sidebar - cmd+B - would be very helpful as well .

Thank you for your consideration .

 To be honest, bookmarks contain some of our personal privacy information, but it can't be hidden, which is very uncomfortable. I would like to ask, can such a function code be developed? This should be a very simple problem for Engineers....😋

basterebbe anche che la barra laterale sinistra dei preferiti scomparisse da solo dopo tot secondi per poi essere richiamata avviciando il puntatore del mouse a lato pagina... cosi si avrebbe la visualazzazione completa delle pagine aperte.

it would also be enough for the left sidebar of the favorites to disappear by itself after a few seconds and then be recalled by moving the mouse pointer to the side of the page ... so you would have the complete visualization of the open pages

Need, auto-hide bookmarks, it's both safe and minimalistic!

I'd love to have a button to hide or show the bookmarks toolbar , like the button that can be added in 'Customize Toolbar' for toggling the sidebar .

Thank you for your consideration .

Please, build in an option to hide the tab bar!

What's wrong with Ctrl+Shift+B though? That's a good compromise if you need to hide the bar for a long amount of time, I use it when I have videoconferences for example.

As for the auto-hide bookmarks bar — absolutely yes. I made an idea about this recently, and you can vote for it as well: https://connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/auto-hide-bookmarks-bar-option/idi-p/19497

Often the user doesn't have his left (or right) hand on the keyboard when just using the mouse to browse.

So without an auto-hide feature, which is clearly the best option, reaching for the keyboard with the other hand is just inefficient let alone annoying.

Being able to customize the toolbar/titlebar with a button for toggling the bookmark toolbar would be a nice option regardless.
