Especially during development it’s annoying to reach the options page of a Firefox addon:

  1. Hamburger
  2. Addons and Themes
  3. Options

There should be a faster way. At least for your own Add-ons you can quite easily add an “Options” menu item to the browser

browser.contextMenus.create({
title: 'Options',
contexts: ['browser_action'],
onclick: () => {
browser.runtime.openOptionsPage();
},
});

Additionally to have to add a new permission to the manifest.json file:

"permissions": ["contextMenus"],

That was easy!
