Browser-laptop: The UI should allow for advanced customization

[ghost]

The concept of Brave looks like it will be a real browser for power users again. Would be nice to have advanced customization features aka a full status bar or being able to combine urlbar elements with the tabs if possible, or more advanced elements movement in the UI.

Thanks for considering :)

This is a pretty cool idea for post-1.0. The browser UI is completely written in HTML/CSS/JS, so it makes sense for us to be the https://atom.io/ of browsers in terms of core customizability.

Just take a look at Firefox version 22 (outdated, but had many interesting features loved by power users) or Vivaldi Browser - Blink engine is able to support tons of features and speed, so i really hope you are making use of that opportunity and not just plan to create another simple browser for the masses, but as Brendan Eich is founder of Brave, i guess you have anyway more higher goals for your browser than other projects :)

This would be definitely something that I would love. I miss the hackability of "old" Firefox releases in terms of UI customization, and being able to achieve that again would be fantastic!

Per https://github.com/brave/browser-laptop/issues/5683, we should allow for folks to modify:

• the size of tabs
• fonts used in the tabs

Would be great to have something similar to Atom. Have a tidy doc that you can just edit.
