When right-clicking on the Firefox icon in the Windows task bar one can pin entries, which then appear in the "Pinned" section of that menu. The description is taken from the title of the website at that point in time.

I would like to rename one such entry (i.e. change the description). How can I do this? The context menu only contains the options "Open" and "Unpin from this list".

When right-clicking on the Firefox icon in the Windows task bar one has the option to "pin" items by hovering over an entry in the "frequent" list and clicking on the little pin needle icon (with the hover text "Pin to this list").

How can I pin items that are not in the frequent list? I have tried for weeks to make an important page a frequent one by making sure to visit it daily but it never makes it to the list.

Modiy behaviour of standard toolbar button

When customizing the toolbar, Firefox has a standard button named "Forget" which lets you easily delete browser data (see the attached image).

I'm using this button, but I should like the button to work in a different way. What I want is that everything except from browser history is deleted, when I click the forget icon. It should not be necessary to first click the forget icon, and then "Forget!" (as in the attached image). I don't neither want to restart the browser or open a new clean window

Does someone know how to achieve this without developing my own plugin? Does the standard buttons have some scripts somewhere that can be edited?

How to remove the "<selection>" tag from the selected text when using the AI chatbot custom prompt in the about:config?

You can create custom prompts in about:config (search for browser.ml.chat.prompt), so you can use something like {"label":"Custom prompt","value":"%selection%"}. This %selection% is the text on the page that is currently selected. When you select something and click the chatbot popup button that appears and choose your custom prompt, it sends to the chatbot the string "<selection>the selected text</selection>". So instead of just returning the actual text, it adds the <selection> tag around it.

There are two problems with this: 1. it's ugly, and 2. the chatbot doesn't ignore it, sometimes changing the response because of the "<selected>" tag.

How to remove this tag so that what is sent is only the "the selected text" string with no tag?
