Comment:
Thanks for the review.
> 3. Can we use the circular onion icon? I aim to have updated all the
onions at the URL bar and the circuit display too.
Is there a svg for that one? I could not find one with just a single color
like the ones in your design.
> 4. I don't think we need a menu under the [...] It adds noise and I
don't see a real use case for it. Do you think I'm missing something? Let
me know.
I think it makes sense. This came for free by using the internal Firefox
page action API, but we can just make it not be a page action, and be at
the left of those, like the reader mode button for example.
> 5. Can we prompt the discover-like doorhanger just for first-time users?
I don't want to suggest users change the general settings every time they
have an onion available. It will add extra friction in the entire
experience which I don't think is needed.
> 6. If users have selected [ask me every time] then we show the onion-
label suggestion pill. If users have selected [always use .onion when
available] then we redirect to the onion using the proposed animation. So,
the onion-label pill doesn't need a menu. Again, am i missing something?
Ok, so clicking on the pill should directly go to the .onion, and the
doorhanger should appear only once, for the opt-in. I think that makes
sense, and then there's no need for contextual menu, indeed.
> 9. As part of #30024, I made this micro animation for when the onion
gets updated. Do you think it is something doable? The persistent pill
seems too much for it.

onion-2.gif
Not completely sure how easy that will be, but I will try. The animation
only affects the "lock"/onion icon and the pill, right? That's for "ask me
everytime", for "always use .onion" the animation would be only on the
"lock"/onion (as there would be no pill), if I am correct.
> 10. The panel at `about:preferences` looks great. Should we move it
under the Tor section? I suggested to have it on Privacy & Security and
maybe it is the right place to have it. What do others think?
I'm not sure. Is the Tor section supposed to mean "settings for Tor
client", or just any setting related to Tor? I don't know if it should be
in `Privacy/Security` either, as I'm not sure it has much privacy/security
benefits actually (as noted in
