User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9b3) Gecko/2008021416 Firefox/3.0b3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9b3) Gecko/2008021416 Firefox/3.0b3

When the name of the "owner" (I'm not sure of the terminology) of a verified secure site is sufficiently long, the secure/verification information can occupy much/most of the location bar. (Screenshot forthcoming.)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set browser width to be approximately 800px.
2. Connect to a secure site (e.g. https://connections.pheaa.org/accountAccess/aes/index.cfm).
Actual Results:  
Location bar is crowded out, address is hard to read.

Expected Results:  
The security portion of the location bar to be reduced, at least when the address bar is narrow itself.

Here's an example of my browser at normal width (I made the browser shorter for the screenshot).
