Add stop button
Hi. I've recently upgraded to Firefox 29. In previous versions, there was work around to always have a stop button available. I found this useful and am willing to give up the small about of space that such a button takes up. This seams to no longer be the case in Firefox 29. I would prefer to always have a stop button available and for the stop and refresh buttons not to be in the same location at different times (after all their functions are opposite of one another).
Searching has given me the solution of adding the classic theme restorer add on. This makes more changes then the one I am requesting and it makes changes that I don't want. I have also found another add on which is active stop button but this also makes changes that I don't want. This is not an aesthetics issue for me but rather a functionality issue for me. Is there a way to separate the refresh and stop buttons and to have the stop button always available without making any other changes?

Don't reset Firefox. There's absolutely no point in doing that.
- Uninstall any add-ons you don't want, like Classic Theme Restorer, and restart Firefox afterwards.
- Right-click an empty area of the tab bar and choose Customize.
- Click the Restore Defaults button, then the Exit Customize button.
Once you've done that,
- Install Stylish and restart Firefox when prompted.
- Click the ≡ Menu Button and choose Add-ons.
- In the Add-ons Manager, click User Styles on the left.
- Click the Write New Style button at the top. Paste the following in the text box, give the style a name, then click the Save button.
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul); #urlbar-stop-button { visibility: visible !important }
If you don't want to install an add-on, you can use the userChrome.css file instead, but I don't recommend it.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: This will cause you to lose any Extensions and some Preferences.
- Open websites will not be saved in Firefox versions lower than 25.
To Reset Firefox do the following:
- Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
- Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
- Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
- Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the Refresh Firefox - reset add-ons and settings article.

Thank you.
