    Yes I went through few reviews and surprised as why they are following Chrome as they are the No. 1 Browser. They have remove the main menu to 'increase discoverability'.

    The support for CSS animation, HTML5, XHR, MathML, SMIL, and canvas is also improved with it.

    You can still see the main menu but the difference is only it is not there by default, You need to right click at header are and make the Main Menu enable. And I do not think anything new with this as this was also possible with the older versions of Firefox.

    This is good move by them to keep the older looks as optional one so that the old users will not feel anything difficult due to change in the looks.

    Yeah, the time becomes very frustrating when we could not find any tool and function quickly when we are requiring it urgently and we used to do it very well with the older version.

    The only precaution they need to take is carry all the goodies to next upgraded versions and provided the newly developed features and functions as optional. Because the old and current versions of Mozilla are highly popular and sometimes people hate the newly released versions once, they got habit of the older ones.

    This is an official statement with their releases, "The Do-Not-Track header preference has been moved to increase discoverability" Few users may not like it but I hope many would welcome this change.

    I specially liked the "do not track" feature in the privacy preferences, This is one step up in terms of privacy and security.

    Recently I installed the 10.0 and believe me half of my total add-ons stopped working so I would like to suggest to all to check the compability of your add-on before upgrading the Firefox.
