Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Firefox :: Theme, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9pre) Gecko/2008040404 Firefox/3.0pre

The icons in the Find toolbar do not have a disabled state, which presents conflicting information to the user when the Find toolbar is opened with nothing in the Find: field because the text next to the icons is greyed out, indicating that the buttons are disabled, but the icons themselves are not greyed out, which makes them look like they are clickable even though they are in fact disabled.

This is also a regression from Firefox 2, where the Find toolbar icons look disabled when they are.

Reproducible: Always
