Too many steps to access bookmarks after opening a new tab in Firefox Beta for Android
After the recent update (81.1.0-beta.2?), the search bar is automatically focused plus the On-screen keyboard. Somebody might have thought it would be convenient to use, but it was not my case. It forces more steps to access the bookmarks. I loved to open bookmarks on a new tab and this update drives me crazy. See this:
1. Opens a new tab. 2. Press the back key to hide the keyboard. 3. Tap the three-dot button to open the menu. 4. Tap the "Bookmarks" menu. 5. Finally, choose a bookmark item which to access.
FIVE steps to use bookmark is non-sense! Bookmarks are intended to access the favorite sites within minimal steps. This feature is dying now.
I think this procedure can be reduced to 1-4-5. Just show the "Bookmarks" option after the "Scan" and "Search Engine", which are placed on the upper of the search bar (Indeed, I can't imagine QR search or changing the search engine is more frequent than opening bookmarks). This will revive the usefulness of the bookmarks.

See Customize the Firefox home screen.
Top Sites cannot be an alternative to Bookmarks. I have massive number of bookmark items and those are organized with directories. Top Sites is too simple to satisfy my needs.
