Firefox 51: Zoom Indicator in URL bar

Firefox by default provides zoom widget in menu, which allows user to adjust Zoom level — increase (Ctrl++) or decrease (Ctrl–) or reset zoom level (Ctrl+0) –for a page, but Firefox primary UI no way indicates or alerts users when a site zoom level is in non-default state, to address this, Mozilla has added Zoom indicator to the URL bar in Firefox 51, which will be shown only when the page/site Zoom level is not 100%.
