Not really an annoyance, in my opinion.

I did not use it more than a few minutes yet, so I added this primarily as a reminder what the settings are.

I think we're getting enough stuff for a "look & feel" section or similar, but I would like to split this to another profile. I'll create a new tag for such options.

The settings will probably be removed soon. On reddit a developer said the nightlys do not contain the old address bar anymore. So it will probably not be useful to add this.

Waiting on: A firefox release that is based on todays nightlys (76? 77?)

Here is a script to patch your Firefox installation:

It works fine, but cannot be integrated into the website, because it works in another way than the profile generator.
