Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox

using the ubuntu 11.04 the firefox 4 tabs dont look well. looks like
some kids in a student project made a draft. Colors fits well with
ubuntu theme, but font size, hovers and gradiants arent optimal. its
very easy to make it look much better. I already worked out a
configuration which fits with the ubuntu theme.

just to edit the ~/.mozilla/firefox/*.default/chrome/userChrome.css and
add the following lines:

.tabbrowser-tab, tab * { font-size: 13px !important; }
.tabbrowser-tab:not([selected="true"]), .tabs-newtab-button { background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(#222,#222) !important; }
.tabbrowser-tab:not([selected="true"]):hover, .tabs-newtab-button:hover { background-image: -moz-linear-gradient(#555,#555) !important; }

If folder/file dont not exist, just create it.

With that change, it looks much fresher and fits (almost for me) much
more in the ubuntu style. To explain myself: I saw how looks the
chromium in ubuntu and windows and checked the firefox 4 in windows.
much cleaner and fresher. No gradiant and with better font-size.

I hope you can apply this minor change because it changes the user
experience a lot. Thx.
