This is a massive UX improvement for large screens. I wondered how long it would take UX folks to make this change (along with moving app navigation to the bottom generally).

Minor aside, they don't seem to support the <meta name="theme-color" content="#000000"> to colour the address bar.

Do you consider that a bug or a feature? :) Some people wouldn't want the website to mess with their app UI. I can file a Firefox Preview bug report.

Also, did Firefox for Android (Fennec) support <meta name="theme-color">? Or is this a regression in Firefox Preview?

This is something I really appreciated in IE for Windows Phone. It's such a small change, but I found it much more pleasant to use. Especially if a phone has a > 5" screen.

Microsoft is really a funny beast. Sort of tangential, but I actually really like the UI in the Edge browser. Unfortunately the interface is laggy, but otherwise I found it very comfortable to use. Also the "save tabs for later" feature is really cool.
