The idea here is to use minimum real estate used for the Status Toolbar, and other toolbars, so that you have more screen space to use your browser for it's intended purpose of looking at web pages not space hogging graphics.
This is one of several styles to minimize size of toolbars, look for other styles under my name, David McRitchie, that include "Minimal" or "Presentation" in their style names. There is also Bookmarks Toolbar Blue/Folders, Red/Bookmarks (9091) which removes folder icons from bookmarks toolbar to provide more space for lots of folders with 1-3 letter names.
If interested in rearranging/removing buttons see Organize Status Bar 0.6.4 (addon 1759)
by y5 -- https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/123, can also be used to identify buttons.
While most status bar addons have options to display on status bar or not, some don't, see
http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.support.firefox/browse_frm/thread/32b161d292ec1e65
You could then create a style with something in it like: (for measureit wouldn'd have to disable ext. to toggle the toolbutton)
#measureit_statusbar_panel
, #mousezoom-status,
, #stylish-panel
{ display: none !important; }
Mouse Zoom (addon 2244) status bar indicator can be supressed in addon options
McAfee Status Bar (siteadvisor.com space hog) install w/o search bar, or Yahoo,
in this style reduce width to 20px in Vista, 27px in Win7.
Stylish Custom (addon 12102), in options use stand alone to not mess up extensions display.
For best viewing of style before/after images use userstyles.org -downsize screenshots to fit window (12373).
