Description
https://developer.thunderbird.net/contributing/fixing-a-bug/using-mercurial-queues describes using mq. For various reasons the current recommendation is to use bookmarks, so for people who don't know either I think we should be recommending bookmarks. I think we should:
- Make bookmarks the first link in that section
- Put a banner on the mq page saying that developers should prefer bookmarks.

Research direction
Start with the linked “Using Mercurial Queues” page and locate the section describing mq and its links. Make bookmarks the first link and add a banner recommending bookmarks; the documentation is done when both recommendations appear clearly on the mq page.
