Option to move progress bar to the address bar?

Could you add an option to move this progress bar to the bottom of the address bar?

The FF57 webext does not have expose API to modify the address bar, at least this is my understanding. If somebody has an example I am glad to implement it.

"Ratings Preview for YouTube" adds an icon to the address bar (and I really wish it didn't) maybe you take a look at what it does to find out if this is possible.

Thanks for the pointer, I will explore

Looked at "Ratings Preview for YouTube" - it just installs static address bar button, one of the few supported UI modifications: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/user_interface

Maybe move with userContent.css; hard to do add margin / padding left and right with combo situations.

userContent.css is applicable to the page content only, userChrome.css should have some access to the address bar. But neither of them is accessible/modifiable from the web extensions.

That's what you think....

Unfortunately, you can't distribute extensions using this API through AMO and release versions of Firefox will not accept it.
