Comment:

 Well, the problem here is that the toolbar is essentially user
 customizable as e.g. can be seen on your image with the search bar which
 is not enabled by default in Firefox/Tor Browser. So, what do we do then?
 We made the decision to not mess with the toolbar for installed Tor
 Browser versions, but rather customize it only for new Tor Browsers as we
 want.

 Yes, this leaves the Noscript icon and the HTTPS-Everywhere icon on for
 those users that still have those on the toolbar. I think there is not
 much more we can do here without risking serious interference with user
 customizations. Thus, I am inclined to just live with that and mark this
 as WONTFIX.
