Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Tear Tab
Actual Results:  
UI has normal sized icons, with toolbar with search bar.

Expected Results:  
Should keep the same preferences and apply to the new window created.

This works fine for me. Have you tried:

- Firefox's safe-mode to exclude extension/theme problems
- a new profile
- a reinstall in a new empty folder?
