Actual Results: The search bar is part of the navigation toolbar. Toolbars are fixed. Expected Results: The search bar should be its own toolbar that can be enabled/disabled. Toolbars should be movable.

Thanks, I didn't realize you could customize toolbars in Firefox. Nice feature. However, the google search box is just too small. I may be able to create my own "Search" toolbar (as the text of this bug states originally) but the Google box is confined to a fixed size. It should stretch to the extents of the toolbar (or to the next item in the toolbar). Basically it should have the same properties as the navigation/URL bar. Summary field of this bug changed from "Toolbars should be movable. Google should be its own toolbar" to "Google/Search bar should be expandable in Toolbar Customization" Regards, Jeff

It's already been decided not to have such functionality. See the dup'ed bug for a workaround. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 205011 ***
