Why was the "new tab" button option removed from the "customize toolbar" set?

Back in 3.x and older I was able to place a "open new window" button, and an "open new tab" button on the bookmarks toolbar. This worked well for me. Now with 4, the "open new tab" is unavailable, and you can only open a new tab using the default button right next to your already open tabs.

Any chance of that open new tab button coming back? I'd rather use that (what I am used to) than the new one.

They're called options, stop removing them.

You can find the New Tab button showing as a '+' on the Tab bar.
You can open the Customize window and drag the New Tab button from the Tab bar on another toolbar and it will become a regular toolbar button like the New Tab button that you have in Firefox 3 versions.
If you want the New Tab button at the far right end of the Tab bar then place a flexible to the left of it.


Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"

That solved the problem, although it still doesn't explain why there was a need to remove it in the first place. Extremely frustrating as a user to have to jump through hoops to obtain a feature one wants. Stop removing them in the first place.
