'Options' sub-menu feels like a duplicate of 'Settings'

[Cwpute]

New issue to continue the discussion started in #514 regarding the Options sub-menu and the parameters located there.

Summary of my original grieves: The current Options sub-menu creates confusion regarding its use and its contents, as there already exists a Parameters menu. What's the difference between the two ? What can be done to avoid confusion ?

Answering @Slion 's comment:

The new Options menu will offer access to contextual parameters such as domains settings and live parameters such as scrollbars.

Maybe then it could be called "Contextual parameters", so it this is made explicit.

The Options menu should not contain stuff you want to have quick access to. […] Neither scrollbars nor domain settings is something you need quick access to during a typical browsing session.

Yet it occupies a space in the main menu that suggests it is an important tool that you will want to use quite often: Sessions, Bookmarks, Downloads, Incognito and WebPage are placed here because they provide acces to often used features. The exceptions being History (Fulguris exerts you into opening new tabs, so hopefully you dont close much of them) and Preferences (once set, you leave them be) which still need to ée accessed from somewhere.

It's just a more user friendly version of the Settings if you want.

As i understand it then, what you call user-friendly in this case is that it shows visible changes to the current page being applied in real time. it's a very interesting idea, but it currently has too many edge cases in which it could be impractical. For example, this is the Scrollbar parameters panel from the Options section, as it appears right now for me:

First of all, the page is dimmed, so it doesn't represent what you see when browsing. Then, i can only see the top 20% of this page, on which the scrollbar i'm supposed to edit isn't visible. And unless we can cook a compact UI for each future options in this section (that leaves, let's say, 70% of the browsed page visible at least), this problem will creep up again.

Instead of making an entirely new section that is specifically designed to be user-friendly, maybe we can make the original Settings menu user-friendly :) Two things we can do:

1. Upon interaction, every parameter that affects a webpage visible aspect would bring a preview of the curently browsed page, with the toggle/slider of said parameter as a floating pannel. This would solve the problem of not seeing much of the page you're bringing modifications to, while keeping the scrollbar parameters in the Parameters sub-menu.
2. Alternatively, we could have a integrated preview attached to the parameters page that shows what it would look like. This is a mock-up page for Android 11 settings: That might be a lot more more work than the suggestion above, but would also solve the problem of not seeing the parameters you're modifying in action.

Just wanted to put that link here as I was reading through it before deciding on that new Options menu: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2074384/options-settings-properties-configuration-preferences-when-and-why
