== Too much clutter?? ==
The proposed new page and tools menus are bloated, in my opinion.
In the page menu:
- Do we really need cut, copy, paste, select all? (I'd like to see some quantitative proof that people still use those in the current edit menu.)
- Do we really need undo, redo?
- "Find" should be renamed to "Find on page" to be more descriptive and to reduce confusion.
- "Full screen" could possibly be moved to the Zoom submenu.
- The three Print options should be combined into a click-able submenu, if you understand what I mean.
- Developer Tools??? Really?? Devs will probably know about the Alt keyboard shortcut to show the full menubar. Also, Dev Tools in the Page menu?
Tools menu:
- "Open file" -- is this necessary? You can always drag and drop a file onto Firefox.
- "Clear recent history" should be put in the recent history submenu
- Is "Exit" necessary?? There is a giant red close button in Vista/7 for a reason. We don't just have to copy Google Chrome for the sake of coping Google Chrome.
I hope I don't come off as complaining a bunch. I really do love the direction the design is going for Firefox 3.7 and 4.0 on Vista/7. Great job! Hope my suggestions help!
Thanks,
-Chris
