What we're hearing from you
Been loving the new Edge so far, and it's been a huge improvement from the old one. But one thing for me is still missing, I love that you can now switch between multiple Microsoft accounts like you can do with Google accounts on Chrome, but on Chrome there's a little "square" button that if you click on it it'll drop down a menu with many Google services to quick-launch (Google Docs, Drive, Gmail, etc.). I would love you see something like that implemented into Edge, like a menu where you can fire up Word Online or your Outlook email straight from the home menu with just 2 clicks.

Personally I have my outlook.com Mail as a favorite on the right hand end of the favorites bar. Click it and Outlook.com Mail page opens (And logs in automatically as it's a saved login), which has the square of 9 dots button, just like Google's, that drops down a menu of all the Microsoft Apps. So two clicks. Just as I have Google.co.uk as one of the tiles on the new tab page of Edge and Firefox, so 1 click on a tile on the ntp gives me the Google home page with the 9-dot square for the menu of all the Google services (and logs into Google automatically, and has a link to my Google Account).
I really can't understand the need for adding extra buttons in a toolbar likely to become crowded with extension buttons when it's trivial to create easy access to the Microsoft Apps menu in either the favorites bar or through a tile on the ntp.

Maybe, it is somewhat similar what one can access from the top of the MSN Home page...

I see, that's pretty neat. I didn't even know about that before as the default home page isn't that. I think most people (like me) who enjoys Google's service menu don't know about this which is very unfortunate π . I'm thinking maybe Microsoft can add a menu just like that in between the search bar and the profile picture and include all MS services (including the likes of Mixer, Xbox, OneNote etc.)
