Firefox/Projects/Preferences UI/design

This wiki will track the design development of Firefox's Preferences UI.

Privacy Categories

There are several ways sites can be given privileges and access to user data, both by default and request. The priority of these privileges, determined by relevance and frequency of user, will determine the order they appear in the preferences UI. Current list:

- Pop-ups (allow to open/disallow) - Images (allow to load/disallow) - Add-ons (allow to install/disallow) - Cookies (allow to use/disallow) - Passwords (allow to save/disallow, manage accounts, main account) - Offline Data (allow to store/disallow) - Geolocation

Privilege	Options	Priority	Default
