If you miss the add-on bar and the tabs on bottom option, you can certainly do that with extensions!

Okay, thank you. I'll try that after work, but why aren't they already on the bottom if browser.tabs.onTop is set to "false" as described in the Firefox help article?

That, I'm not sure of, so I'm not going to answer pretending I know the answer when I don't. Perhaps another contributor can let you know soon. This is the 2nd day of the Launch week for us and there's a lot of contributors roaming around answering questions, so you'll be sure to get an answer if you need it.

The browser.tabs.onTop pref is no longer supported in Firefox 29 and later.
You can reset this pref on the about:config page via the right-click context menu to have it removed on the next Firefox start.

You can also use code in userChrome.css to have the Tab bar in the lower position.

The extension worked like a charm! I used the second one. Thank you!

Having to move my mouse that extra inch to the top of the screen and back every time I want to switch tabs is a ridiculous waste.

Why remove the ability to control tab-bar position natively? I've tried tabs on top - My eyes have to move farther and so does my mouse. What possible benefit could there be>?

Seems like Mozilla just wants to be like Chrome. If that's the goal, problem solved. I've got Chrome.

And no - I don't want to subject my browser to a third-party developer for something as fundamental as tab-bar position. Nor do I want to futz with CSS (as some suggest is "easy").

Please provide native control over the tab-bar position.
