I realize that this question was already asked, but in order to reply or create an account just to reply - I HAD to ask a question.

Though I know that the new Firefox interface is here, it couldn't hurt to put the separator button in the option available for me to drop in on the main toolbar or tab-bar. The issue I have is that I have separators now in the way I've customized Firefox, but if I remove them there's NO WAY to get them back. I'm not asking for for the universe, just a separator button...

Sorry, the Separator feature is gone and I doubt if it will be added back into Firefox, especially since an extension is available which restores that feature.

Many of us are using Classic Theme Restorer (Customize Australis) {web link} Restore squared tabs, appmenu, add-ons bar, small button view and more on Australis UI (Windows/MacOSX/Linux + Fx 29+).

This will restore many of the things the last upgrade took away.

@FredMcD I understand that they are doing that. I don't want to revert the UI per se. I like the the new UI and how speedy Firefox is now. All I want is the separator item back which shouldn't be asking for much... I already have a separator in my UI.

And if it's going to be asking for too much, I'll have to consider writing an add-on that will make it available again.
