|Feature ux design=Known design requirements:
*Redesigned Panel based Firefox Menu living on the toolbar
*In-Content Customization Tab/Mode
*Icon drag-and-drop including:
**Dragging from a tools palette to the Menu or a Toolbar
**Dynamic icon rearrangement and visual placement (i.e. you can see exactly where you are placing your icon not an abstract placement indicator)
**Visual indicators for acceptable drag areas
*Customization Mode Appearance including:
**Additional browser padding
**Toolbar and/or Window textures
**De-emphasis of non-relevant areas of UI
*Contextual Options menu for:
**Small Icons
**"Reset to Default"
*Reduce toolbar item redundancy and complexity by eliminating "magical" button merging behavior
Potential requirements:
*Direct manipulation of items in addition to drag-and-drop:
**Direct selection
**Buttons for Add/Remove
*Layout options
**Small Icons
**"Reset to Default"
Potential design variations:
*Icon and Grid based menu vs. traditional single column menu
