How to set minimum size for the 'location' box in toolbars?

I reorganized my toolbars by merging the location and tabs bar. I have the location on the left hand side and the tabs *next* to it, like this:

[ (<)(>) [LOCATION] /tab\/tab\/tab\ ]

Unfortunately when the number of tabs increases, the location box becomes so small that I cannot even see the url of the site I'm in...

Is there a way to force a minimum width for the location box? I couldn't find a setting in about:config for it (I imagine that this would be a browser.urlbar setting)

You cannot do it from about:config

You rock! The combination of fixed width tabs with the stylish Add-on, and the single line of script below just made my day!

  1. main-window[sizemode="maximized"] #TabsToolbar, #TabsToolbar > #urlbar-container { min-width: 350px; }

Many thanks!
