    If you have some specific button from an extension installed and visible in your toolbar then you will see it in this toolbar together with url. But you woun’t see other default buttons in it. This does not look nice.

    For example this extension ImageShowHide http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=116753

    What if someone used a loooooooooooong chrome address and you can’t see the chrome: beginning.

    Spiff: the address bar shows the beginning of a long address, not the end.

    That has got to be the stupidest fix I have ever seen – forcing an address bar, jeeezz – it totally breaks every popup on the net, in terms of the address bar taking up 30px in the top and thereby pushes content below the height of the popup. And it’s just plain ugly too.
