In theory, I'd like it for Firefox however (a) I doubt that it will 
happen (see for example 
<https://discord.com/channels/727023752348434432/831066226074976267/848514886618316830>); 
and (b) I'd not benefit from it (I use the menu bar of Firefox for more 
than just menus).

More generally, in the helloSystem area:
