Comment(by cypherpunks):

 I have used PrefBar for several years.
 This add-on provides the features you ask for.
 It is also easy to configure your own functions.
 I recently added a `dom.storage.enabled` toggle for an offline FF copy
 that I use for HTML5 development.

 I have been meaning to ask of you regular Tor-devs to properly vet this
 addon, and now seems to be a good time to do it.

 As far as I can tell there is only one button that might require removal
 from a customized install, the `prefbar:button:executedemo2` found in the
 'prefbar.json' settings file.

 The original author of this addon might cooperate with you, just ask him.
