The problem with tabbed browsing, at least for me, is that the tabs are at the top of the window rather than the bottom. Is there any way to fix that in Firefox/Mozilla?

Several extensions enables this choice.

Have you tried turning your monitor upside-down?
Seriously though, how does this constitute a "problem" rather than some arbitrary personal preference?

Failure to support "arbitrary personal preferences" IS a problem, for a consumer-oriented product, if those preferences are common.
However, the degree of customization supported by firefox seems to happily enable most kinds of changes that users would want to make, if they're willing to do a little extension hunting.

It's a problem because it's not what I want. That's why I said that it was a problem *for me*.
