 Since FF70, the green locks at the URL bar are gone. The current Firefox
 approach to security indicators is detailed here[1]. Chrome is leading
 towards this intention, too[2].

 As part of S27, I'm working on unifying (and simplifying) the brand
 presence of onions in Tor Browser, either for referring to the network or
 to the onion services.

 I'm opening this ticket to discuss the following:

 - are we ok following the Firefox approach and removing green icons from
 the URL bar?
 - are we ok unifying the visual anchor for onions and onion routing at the
 URL bar and also at the circuit display?
 - are we ok removing EV label from the URL bar and leave it at the
 identity doorhanger?
