Attachment: screenshot

The resizer is "stuck" or still shown on the toolbar after removing the search bar.

Reproduce:
1) Have the resizer between the location bar and search bar
2) Remove the search bar
3) The resizer is now permanently stuck to the right side of the toolbar and cannot be used or removed...even after readding the search bar.

The resizer was shown in "customize toolbar", I readded it and it works find but a resizer is still stuck on the toolbar. In the screenshot there are two resizers there because I did this twice.

A little more info. Since I reproduced this and got two resizers "stuck". I could add the search bar between the two. I can fully use the one on the left side but the right side one is stuck...guess because its right against the very edge of the browser window.

Ah ha. I finally figured out how to remove it.

1) Go to customize toolbar (via right click or view menu)
2) Once it is opened, click on the browser window to give it focus
3) Can now finally grab the resizer and remove it

CAUTION: Do not move the resizer over to the left at all (with the customize dialog open, there is a space between the search bar and the stuck resizer), causes only the search bar to shrink. After closing the customize toolbar dialog, you are stuck in full screen and hitting the shortcut key (F11) causes the title bar to be placed over the menu bar and you can't access anything on the menu bar also the throbber shows through).  I can't remember how I fixed this but I just kept hitting F11, minimize and expand buttons and finally it went back to normal.

WFM now with latest builds.  Actually started working after the resizer was redesigned and hidden from view/only between the location bar and search bar.
