The bookmarktoolbar is not broken. The bar appears but the
bookmarktoolbar button located in the customization option simply need
to be moved back to the bar. It was removed before the bookmarktoolbar
button takes care of that. Anyone able to customize the interface will
be sure to look there.
I forgot to add menu. In otherwords, the bookmarktoolbar button located
in the 'customize' area was removed because the bookmarktoolbar menu
replaces it.
Both bars are totally empty for a reason. The navigation toolbar is
empty because all the stuff there by default was moved to the titlebar.
The bookmarktoolbar area was cleared out because when loaded with the
exact same things that the bookmarktoolbar menu provides it actually
ticks up memory use of the browser. Considering the number of addons and
userstyles used any memory savings was something I wanted to achieve.
You can add bookmarks and bookmarklets to the bookmarktoolbar menu in
the same manner as the regular bookmarktoolbar just drag and drop.
Yes, I understand the reasoning behind it and most of the shifts and
moves of items between the toolbars and why it ended up the way it is
but it was not what I meant. I didn't point out the 'problem' because I
want or need help or support from you how to deal with it. I pretended I
am a new ordinary user who plays with your SeaMonkey - well, maybe a
little bit more curious than ordinary, and I'm trying out what I can do
in this browser, clicking on different elements and choosing options
trying to discover what they do. And from this perspective I am a bit
baffled at finding options to show a bookmarks toolbar and a navigation
toolbar and the only thing they do is show some empty space.
I may understand why it is the way it is (being a developer myself) but
perhaps a different user will not. I think that when a feature is
removed then it would also be good to remove UI menus that lead to it -
otherwise there is a feeling that something is broken. These are little
things here and there and I don't know how important it is to deal with
them - you will be able to judge better.
