Add-on status update (2013-11-18)

- Classic Theme Restorer is out -

https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/classicthemerestorer/

Some comments from me to clarify a few thing regarding this add-ons development I saw on some forums and articles across the Internet:

• I'm not a Mozilla employee, just making add-ons for Mozilla products. ;-)
• Old browser features are not brought back using code 1:1 from older browser versions. Some options are more like a new 'interpretations' of old features (small buttons, hidden nav-bar, text mode, icons+text mode). They may not work with all buttons and toolbars out there.
• The restored 'squared tabs' are created the same way themes modify tabs, so there is a big chance they won't be compatible with extensions that colorize or modify tabs, especially after such extensions get updated to work with Australis UI.
• This add-on uses different ids and classes for new and old features -compared to current non-Australis Firefox- mostly to avoid conflicts with old classes and ids that are still reserved in UX/Australis

A list containing all features this add-on is currently capable of:
