The Highlight seems to be....very creepy...is there no way permanently hide it with no "gear" appearing? I don't want someone to check the menu inside the "gear" and view my top sites for pete sake!!
All I want is blank new tab and blank home, is that really hard to implement, mozilla?
Sigh.......

It may not be a good idea to allow unsupervised access to one's computer. I'm not sure that Mozilla needs to take such things into account.

they wont fix that before 57 is released, IMO its not a priority Bug to fix, as long as they fix it before the next ESR thats okEdds wrote:perhaps https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1389966SLK350 wrote:Something weird is going on with my bookmarks toolbar.

Otherwise, I wouldn't complain.
In the past, I use CTR extension to restore blank tab behaviour, but upcoming FF57 will cause CTR to stop working.
