- Latest Activity Stream add-on version (1.0.4) was previously installed on a profile.  

[Steps to reproduce]:
1. Start Firefox browser with the profile where Activity Stream add-on was previously installed.
2. Navigate to a couple of pages in order to have some history stored.

Fixed by remove functionality workflow update. Items are no longer removable with single click. A context menu is now displayed with options.
