Just a few suggestions and requests for developer consideration for Thunderbird:

1) Pin Tab - right click on tab to set and lock pin 2) Username/Password/Form on web content tabs - facebook tab, proton mail tab, webmail login etc 3) Compose in tab 4) Scheduled profile backup

Hope these suggestions are helpful

Just an FYI... oAuth dialogs are generated as web pages by the authenticating server, not Thunderbird. Therefore there is no control over layout or appearance.

Compose in a tab has been a long outstanding enhancement. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=449299 Scheduled profile backup is included in the import export tools addon https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools-ng/?src=ss

I will leave pinning a tab alone as I have yet to really find a use for tabbed email so I would not be a good person to discuss it with.
