Any Quantum add-on to edit menus / context menus?
There was a great XUL extension titled MENU EDITOR which allowed hiding entries from menus, effectively cleaning them up and helping prevent errant clicks. I haven't found anything to replace it for the Quantum (Web Extension) age. Anyone have a suggestion? Bottom line I'd like to be able to edit the right-click context menu(s) for webpage elements, eg, hide "Check Spelling" and such. ?? THX

Following the demise of Menu Editor the only near good enough replacement was Menu Wizard. I don't know though if it's compatible with Quantum Firefox as I haven't made the move yet.

There are no Firefox Quantum addons to remove menu items. It's simply not possible with the WebExtensions API.
You can use the userChrome.css file.

@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul");
menuseparator[id="spell-separator"],
menuitem[id="spell-check-enabled"] {
display: none !important;

Thanks. Here's hoping they never actually prohibit loading userchrome data in later iterations...
