History, cookies, adblock, find, view source. Meaningless words to the plebs, but faintly ridiculous that you are pretending you can't see that an application has to meet the needs of different demographics. They are needed and they are not needed on the main toolbars. Best place for them, a small unobtrusive icon.

I read a very long blog saying much the same about Firefox - there are hundreds of settings, some of which break the browser. This leaves it open to mistakes and the inevitable tech support call. Some features could be safely written out, leading to cleaner and faster and less buggy code.
However, the ... menu on Chrome is pretty simple and useful at times. Where else should they stick it?
So yeah, what leeds-manc says.

Firefox user here, other browsers suck ass even if FF is getting slower. It's easy enough to rearrange it almost any way you want while keeping or ditching aspects. At least on the desktop, must try it again on my phone...

What leeds_manc says is that his browser needs to have a preferences panel, a plugin, a keyboard short cut and a menu option. What tickled me more was the notion of 'power' browsing. Browsing. It's like 'power rambling'. Yeah, I like to pop along to the shops every now and then for some milk, and when I do, I need to have my approach shoes, my hiking boots, my nordic poles, a 30 litre back pack, my GPS device, a sat phone and a tent.
