Ahhhh, "context menus".  Yes, they're a pain.  A (usually) right-click
menu which has different options depending on what you clicked on.  I
hate things that re-arrange the deck-chairs, too.  *Particularly* the
main menu, as I've already brought up earlier.

Tabs are both a pain and a godsend.  It's useful to be able to easily
flick between a few webpages as you look into something.  But then you
end up with a browser with a 100 tabs still open, because you never
close the other ones, mostly because bookmarking is so badly
implemented.

I find Firefox getting really bad at context-menus, now, too.  I can
highlight a word, a *single* word, any word, on the page, and the first
half of all the menu options are context menu choices for links.  But
this word is not a link, not in any way, shape, or form.  It's on any
page, even plain HTML pages, no scripting at all (I know this because I
wrote them, by hand), it does it there, too.  Highlight more than one
word, and it behaves more appropriately.

(At the moment I'm trying this on Firefox 152.0.4 (64 bit) on CentOS. 
I'm fairly sure it behaves the same on the other PC running Fedora.)
