Invalid. Use Customize (add-on bar is a normal toolbar, it's not static like status bar) and put flexible space before and after the add-on icons, this will make them centered. If you put a flexible space before the icons only, it will make them right aligned etc.

Yes, I know. But, many users not will realize this. My idea was to add icons to be made implicit in the right side of the add-on bar. Initially, icons is arranged in left position. Is a bit inappropriate, as they icons just above to Start windows button and in this situation to work harder so.
Boriss: there's an interesting UX problem here to think about, but I don't think this blocks and Raul, most of the flags you tweaked there bordered on abuse.

Any news for this bug?
For now this bug is fixed because flexible space is adding by default in add-ons toolbar. (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:19.0) Gecko/19.0 Firefox/19.0 ID:20121015030612)
