379902 - Remove the line around the statusbar

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20061201 Firefox/2.0.0.3 (Ubuntu-feisty)
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20061201 Firefox/2.0.0.3 (Ubuntu-feisty)

Firefox's statusbar has a line around it (see screenshot), but some other apps (gedit and rhythmbox for example) don't. I prefer the statusbar without the line, since it looks cleaner and the bar becomes more of an integral part of the user interface. My request is, thus, to get rid of the line around the statusbar.

Reproducible: Always

I can verify that the line is there in Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.4) Gecko/0000000000 Firefox/2.0.0.4 (Ubuntu-edgy).  This sounds like it should be an RFE, though.

Oops, that wasn't with the official branch build.  The line is there in the official branch, too, though, so it still sounds like an RFE.

Confirming as a valid RFE, though, I bet this is a quick WONTFIX. The line is there to distinguish better.

Theming issue... moving to general
