Ah, thanks! Many of those same things have been bugging me since FF2.0, but I hadn’t bothered to go find solutions until I came across this entry. Thanks for the various tips!

Another way to get rid of the worthless go button is to go to the “about:config” page and find the Preference Name “browser.urlbar.hideGoButton”. Set it’s value to true by double clicking it.

There is a wealth of settings in this area, just be careful - it’s kind of like editing your registry: it can be fun and you can set customize a great deal of settings, but it can be dangerous.

Have fun!

The Tabbrowser Preferences extension lets you decide where your tab closing button ends up (if anywhere).
