Remove Firefox Screenshots from the mouse's context-menu
I think the screenshot feature is pretty useful, so I'd like to keep it. However, as someone who uses the Developer Tools a lot, it is fairly frustrating to me that the FF Screenshots feature is added to the bottom of the context menu.
My question: Is it possible to remove FF Screenshots from the context menu, while keeping the feature itself active?

I suppose you are familiar with toggling the extensions.screenshots.disabled preference to true in order to disable the feature entirely, which is not what you want.
To hide the context menu entry only, try adding this to your (or create a) userChrome.css file: @namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); #context-navigation, #screenshots_mozilla_org-menuitem-_create-screenshot { display: none !important } (Source, including important remarks and a link to userChrome.css help)
Note that the entry will still be enabled in the address bar’s three-dot menu, which may be no issue. If it is, use this for the second line: #context-navigation, #screenshots_mozilla_org-menuitem-_create-screenshot, #pageAction-panel-screenshots

That bottom section of the context menu is used by all extensions that create new menu items, so it may be difficult to keep it clear in the long run. You can use a custom style rule to force the Inspect Element item and its accompanying separator to the bottom of the menu so that regardless of how many extensions add to it, you will always find it in the same place.
/* Move "Inspect Element" and preceding separator down the menu */ #context-inspect, #inspect-separator { -moz-box-ordinal-group: 20 !important; }
For more information on setting up a userChrome.css file, see: https://www.userchrome.org/how-create-userchrome-css.html
I compiled a list of the ID's of all the CSS context menu selectors. This includes all of the separators.
I figured it may be useful to someone, especially since I was not able to find all of these in one place and had to follow a couple separate posts on the internet in order to figure out what every thing is called. As a note, these ID's are current as of Firefox ver. 61.0.2 (64-bit)
Removes Items from Tab Context Menu

Removes Separators from the Tab Context Menu. Keep in mind that for each separator below there are multiple names I was able to identify that work. You only need to copy one item in order to remove the specified separator.
1st separator menuitem[label="Mute Tab"] + menuseparator #context_toggleMuteTab+menuseparator 2nd separator menuitem[label="Move to New Window"] + menuseparator #context_openTabInWindow+menuseparator 3rd separator #context_sendTabToDevice_separator #context_sendTabToDevice+menuseparator 4th separator menuitem[label="Close Other Tabs"] + menuseparator #context_closeOtherTabs+menuseparator 5th separator menuitem[label="Close Tab"] + menuseparator #context_closeTab+menuseparator
