Yes, excellent list. I'm glad to have a guide to returning FF4's interface back to the way it's supposed to be :-), but I'm going to wait a while to install FF4 so that some of the inevitable extensions incompatibilities shake themselves out.

You're missing the most important tip: How to revert to Firefox 3.x.x (whatever the latest 3 version was). I've been twiddling a while with 4 final and, for the first time in years, removed everything Mozilla from my computer. A lot of things which I needed to be done in a specific way simply did not work. FF3.x.x was "good enough" for me.
