See also: 1280347 - Add ability to provide custom HTML elements working as alias of existing Firefox UI items, especially tabs

I have no plan to implement fully-HTML-based custom menu system inside the sidebar area.

I have no plan to implement fully-HTML-based custom menu system inside the sidebar area.

The reason:

As I told at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1280347 I don't want to include any "context menu" implementation (not "context menu item"!) in my addon, because it introduces new hell - I'll have to struggle to synchronize my own menu to Firefox's tab context menu for new features, removed features, and so on. Moreover, it won't help us from incompatibility of multiple addons - some addon will adds context menu items for Firefox's tab context menu, but it will ignore TST's menu even if TST provides any API to insert custom context menu items from other addons.

By recent commits, now context menu items for tree are available on tabs and pages. They are not available on the sidebar. I'm still waiting that something solution is landed...

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1376251 and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1396031 are now marked as "wontfix" for Firefox 57. I must give up to wait for those bugs to be fixed...
