Can I use my Firefox account to sync Thunderbird settings across devices?
I'm using my Firefox account to successfully view open tabs across devices, and I'm really enjoying it. I was wondering if I could use this account to sync my Thunderbird account and configuration settings across devices, rather than maintaining them both individually. Is this something that's possible now? Is this on the roadmap?
Thank you very much for your time, and take it easy. :)

Mail can be synchronized across devices if the accounts are set up as IMAP, and contacts and calendars can also be synced through the built-in CardDAV and CalDAV options, or with add-ons like TbSync. Other settings cannot be synced the same way as with Firefox bookmarks.

That's a bummer. I have Thunderbird on 2 machines (1 Linux the other Windows) and have Thunderbird manage my RSS feeds. It's a pity I cannot sync these. Oh well...
