Toolbar Buttons
by Button Guy

Adds toolbar buttons to the customize toolbar window in several programs including Firefox, Thunderbird and SeaMonkey. Some of the buttons make commonly preformed actions quicker, others add new functionality.
Collector's Note For a one-handed one-button-trackpad user, buttons are by far the most efficent controls, but Firefox fails to provide buttons for many critical features. (And as of Firefox 3 on Mac, makes them unforgivably indistinguishable and ugly.) TbB fixes most of this. I routinely use: reload including cache, bookmark without prompt, print setup, toggle styles, toggle javascript, toggle java, stop all, left tab, right tab, close tab, undo close tab, increase magnification, reduce magnification, reset magnification, scroll to top, and scroll to bottom.
DOM Inspector

DOM Inspector is a tool that can be used to inspect and edit the live DOM of any web document or XUL application. The DOM can be navigated using a two-paned window displaying a variety of different views on the document and all nodes within.
Collector's Note This used to be included, and is still a must-have for looking under the hood and doing user-interface scripting.
HashColouredTabs+

Improves tab identification by providing a small colored icon for any site which doesn't have its own 'site icon'.
★ 'favicon' now also shown in history and bookmarks ★
Collector's Note Favicons, those little images that appear in tabs next to the Web page names and in the URL bar next to the URL, consume network bandwidth to download, CPU cycles to display, and disk space to store in your bookmark collection, and return nothing I value. Years ago this was significant, and HCT+ was the answer to making the Web faster and smaller...nowadays, not so much. But I still prefer the peaceful uniform rainbow of little rounded squares to the hyperactive noisy clutter of Website favicons, so I keep it.
