Active bar should read Active Tab.

This change is due to bug 1184651.


I prefer the new interface (flat background instead of gradient), really.

Just tried several new themes. Seems the gradient function works with none of them.
The loss of the gradient happened only after updating to 44.02, therefore I think it's a new bug.

You can install new themes that are more to your personal taste.
You can find them here: https://addons.mozilla.org/nl/firefox/themes/

It's even more annoying if, like I do, you place a bookmarks-bar beneath the address-bar.

It's a dupe and it's wontfix.
