Bug Description

Today a Firefox update was pushed out for 21.04. Not sure if this problem occurred with the update or before, but I just noticed it after the update.

Using the Firefox hamburger menu, then selecting Customize toolbar... I arrive at a tab titled Customize Firefox. In the lower left corner of the screen is a checkbox for Titlebar.

If that checkbox is checked, the titlebar appears at the top of the window, and below it are all the tabs.

If that checkbox is NOT checked, the titlebar remains visible but now the window controls are duplicated on the tabs line (in my case to the left as I have the window control position set to the left).

In previous versions of Firefox, it was nice to be able to turn off the titlebar and have the controls move to the tabs line. And in any case, two sets of active window controls, one beneath the other, is not particularly useful.
