Firefox is open-source, so you could add that. I would really appreciate being able to turn WebUSB WebBluetooth and WebRTC off entirely as those expose a lot of devices that I need not to be exposed to the Internet.
I'm pretty sure someone at Firefox has decided the settings panel should be 'clean' and 'easy to use' rather than providing maximum control.
I mean, there's a lot in about:config that the settings panel doesn't support.
I get that adding lots of user controls makes state management difficult, but there are tried and true ways to do this; users need the browser to work for them, not the other way around.
