Comment (by gk):

 Just from a quick glance at the screenshots. Are those from a fresh Tor
 Browser? I am asking because one of the ideas related to this ticket was
 to reorganize the toolbar while we are at it, see:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor-browser-spec.git/tree/proposals/101
 -security-controls-redesign.txt section 2.1. At the end we would omit the
 HTTPS-E and NoScript icon and the Torbutton one would be at the right side
 next to the URL bar. Back then when I worked on this ticket I looked at
 that a bit and it was not obvious at least how to prevent WebExtensions
 from showing their icons by default on the toolbar. But maybe I just did
 not look deep enough...
