Open popups in tabs #197

Open Madis0 opened 4 years ago

Popups, even valid ones, are an annoyance.

As seen on support questions (with more options)

browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction = 0

I am not sure if this is in scope for the main project. But you could create settings files and a new profile. But the scope of this project is not to cover every possible user.js setting, to avoid having a huge number of settings that the user needs to decide on.

Well, I like the idea of the site having checkboxes with descriptions a lot more compared to user.js files that users blindingly download "because they are good".

In terms of decisions, categorization helps. Remember Classic Theme Restorer? That also had plenty of options, which were ordered in tabs and subsections.

This is okay, but not for the main project.

When some of the Infrastructure bugs are implemented, it will be possible to make it more flexible which options are included, but until then it is mostly focused on privacy options. Nevertheless when you want to write settings json files for such settings, they can be merged later when combining profiles and presets (and possibly user defined settings) are implemented.
