You can't really tell how it's going to work just by looking.  I certainly like 
to see ALL the things I generally use without having to hunt through a 
sub-menu, and it looks like the new version makes you do that.  I use tree tabs 
at the side, which gives me enough vertical space to make me happy.  In fact, 
we have to see how the new version works with our old favorite extensions -- 
and I'm ticked because Video Downloader and Abudction won't work with FF 3.5.1 
and Nightly Tester Tools can't fix them.

Do the developers pay any attention to what the users want, or only to what 
THEY want?
