1429464 - Remove toolbox binding

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: UI Widgets, task)

Description

[Tim Nguyen :ntim]

As of bug 1428938, the toolbox binding is only used for the `palette` field and has `-moz-appearance: toolbox;` associated to it.

The `palette` field can probably be folded with the CustomizableUI.jsm module, while the styles can be applied where applicable.

I'm assuming this also requires loading toolbars.css as a UA sheet so that we don't lose those styles from toolbar-base

There's really not much from toolbars.css that toolbox needs. It just needs -moz-appearance: toolbox; which may not require everything bug 1420229 is doing.

Indeed - it looks like we could move the `-moz-appearance: toolbox` rule into xul.css since that's the only relevant thing set in toolbars.css (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/search?q=toolbox+%7B&path=).

- Move -moz-appearance: toolbox to xul.css.
- Remove the markup that initialize the palette field to null,
  effectively initialize the value to undefined, which is still
  falsey.

Thanks! 

Note that the try push is broken because of the cert stuff that's closing trees at the moment, but it loooooks like we might be OK here.

Can you add here that the toolbar binding remains responsible for initializing the toolbox's palette property with an actual DOM node? Thanks!
