Instead it is a little button with 3 horizontal lines on the far right (yet another design ‘borrowed’ from Chrome which…

Early last month we wrote about a change in the closing multiple tabs warning behaviour when using the option to close other tabs (even with the warning turned off in the preferences). Within the past week or so, Bug 772319 which was filed to undo this change was changed to RESOLVED FIXED with a target milestone of Firefox 18.
