Where is my Back/Forward List button?

The latest versions of Firefox 3 had the usual Back and Forward buttons along with a little drop-down arrow that produced a list of sites I've been to on that tab. Often, clicking that arrow and picking the page I wanted was simpler than clicking my way back through several pages. I can't find a way to add that arrow in Firefox 4. It's not in the list of toolbar buttons in the customize dialog. How can I get it back? Is it in the about:config list, and if so, what's it called?

You can get the drop down list by either right-clicking on the back/forward buttons, or holding down the left button until the list appears.

If you want the drop-down arrow you can add it with the Back/forward dropmarker add-on - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker
