If you take a look on firefox's menu themes then there was/is a high demand for a customized individual design. If you can't work good then make it look good at least.

You can see the result on any smartphone GUI. "simple" doesn't stop at the workplace, there is a trend of function reduction in the casual world.
Could anyone check firefox for me? There was a button in the config to disable image downloads and view webpages in text only. I don't find it anymore...
