A small lock would appear at the bottom of a window to assure me that the site was secure to use personal info such as a charge card. Is this no longer needed with the current security features in Firefox?

The padlock has been replaced by the site identity button, for details on using it see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button
