SCENARIO: One or more tabs are currently open and the user wants to open a new one.

CURRENT BEHAVIOUR: It seems that a user can only open a new tab by long pressing on a random link found on an open tab/web page and choosing "Open link in private tab" from the pop up menu.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: A user should be able to open a new tab from the expanded tab count pop up next to the address bar, perhaps above/below "Close other tabs". The tab count should be displayed even when there's only just one tab open; in this case the "Close other tabs" option should not be displayed.

Hi,

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or developers. When a Mozilla employee jumps into a discussion, you'll see the Mozilla staff label next to their name.

If you want to leave feedback for developers, you can use this link. Your feedback is collected by a team that reads it and gathers data on the most common issues.

You can also file a bug report or feature request. See File a bug report or feature request for Mozilla products for details.
