(Get the code!)
Right-click on Firefox in Unity's Dash (the strip on the left side of the screen).
There are two custom Actions: "Open a New Window" and "Open a New Private Window".
I propose that the "Open a " prefix be dropped.
This provides greater consistency with other apps which just use "New Window" or "New Document" Actions. Examples include epiphany-browser, gedit, LibreOffice and Nautilus.
In GNOME Shell, Actions show in the Activities Overview. GNOME Shell includes a default "New Window" action. So in GNOME Shell, the actions shown include the duplicate "New Window" and "Open a New Window". (Note that an explicit "New Window" shortcut does not duplicate the default "New Window" in GNOME Shell.)
Also, you can drop the OnlyShowIn=Unity; from the Actions since Actions are supported in other desktops (GNOME Shell currently ignores that anyway).
