Hi! I used to be able to close any opened tabs on my touchscreen by using my finger to hover over them (an X would mostly appear and I could use that to close them down). This now appears to have been lost meaning I either have to plug a mouse in or use my touchpad. That is really annoying when the pain in my wrists plays up and using a touchpad hurts. Are there plans to re-introduce this? Hovering or clicking on a tab via the touchscreen and being able to close it was a great boon for me!

A deal-braker indeed. I might reluctantly go back to Waterfox unless that fix that soon.
