"Updating extensions for Firefox 3.6"
User interface changes
"Right-clicking on elements (including links and images) no longer offers a "Properties" menu item. The properties dialog boxwas not useful for (...a selected user group!?) and has been removed because of its size of 48 kb...."
Beginning from Firefox 3.6 - Mozilla reduce Web Browser standard features and add unimportant stuff in size of about 200 kb+ into the Firefox core such as Personas which will as optional extension/addon do the job as it always was! A while ago I thought the missing Element Properties is a bug and will be fixed sooner or later: firefox-36-namoroka-personas-support.html

An idea to figure out, overwrite os version and switch to the included aero skin on win xp os (ff like vista look)
without replacing the files from \chrome\browser.jar\skin\classic\aero *.* to \chrome\browser.jar\skin\classic\ {the above folder)
by an installed fx its for example in C:\Program Files\Minefield\chrome\
browser.manifest
skin browser classic/1.0 jar:browser.jar!/skin/classic/aero/browser/ os=WINNT osversion<6
skin browser classic/1.0 jar:browser.jar!/skin/classic/aero/browser/ os=WINNT osversion>=6
to:
change all >=6 by removing from this entries: os=WINNT osversion>=6
remove all with <6 on a XP machine
same thing in
toolkit.manifest
to
when done the xp skin files becomes unused and can be removed in chrome\browser.jar and chrome\toolkit.jar
see folder tree screenshots:
On the other hand you can copy/overwrite all subfolders and files in folder /Aero and subfolders, one folder up in the two Jar archives: browser.jar and toolkit.jar (move them if you don't use vista. If u use vista the xp theme skin files can be erased)
About 800 kb code saving or more than 16 times the size of Element Properties which have been removed in eXtreme stuppiness calling this as a bug patch from some Gui Devs :))
Result on XP:
It's the same as https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/7390 Aero skin is since a while in Firefox 3.5x, 3.6x, 3.7x... builds include.
