Can I change the order of my toolbars in Firefox 5?

Since the update, a toolbar which I have for an add-on ("Hitgrab Community toolbar") has moved to the very top of the screen, above the Navigation bar, and I would really like to move it back down to below Bookmarks, where it was before.

However, I can't seem to click and drag it any more, and there is nothing in the menu options that seems to allow me to rearrange them. Is there a way to do this or will I have to live with it either annoying me or not being there at all?

This extension will give you a certain measure of control over where a specific Toolbar is located, but you may need to play with it a bit.

There used to be a better extension that allowed the user to "drag'n'drop" a complete toolbar to a different location - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/dragndrop-toolbars/ - but it was never updated for Firefox 4.0 Release and is apparently abandoned.

This is what I did: Right-click on tools in menu bar, click on customise. Click on add new toolbar, give it a name. Drag Bookmark toolbar to new toolbar position. Right-click on tools again and click on Bookmark toolbar to hide this now empty toolbar.

It worked for me! The order of my toolbars are, from the top: Menu Bar, Navigation Bar, Bookmark toolbar, Google toolbar, Community toolbar - this is the way I prefer them.
