Great minds think alike. My userChrome.css now looks like this: https://pastebin.com/L0PWz5BG
Note that this also removes the search stuff from the dropdown list, which may or may not be what you want (I prefer the separate search bar).
edit: depending on context, the
.urlbarView-row:first-of-type { display: none !important }
rule does not necessarily remove the right thing; I can live with that, but your mileage may vary...

I had to go ahead and make a userChrome.css because I couldn't take it anymore. This was the best one (although I did remove .urlbarView-row:first-of-type), so thanks for that. Still looks kind of messy, unfortunately, but an improvement!

Do you know if there's a way to specify custom userChrome in AutoConfig[1]? I rely on that to keep my customizations consistent across machines—I really don't want this to be a part of my profile.

Why can't we have customizable browser UI? I'd prefer Firefox to be more like KDE and less than GNOME (feature and configuration wise). Early versions of Opera had amazing customization options, and now - all browsers are same-ish.
