Yes, but it isn't just a small triangle, it's a button that says 
"firefox". It also shows the tabs in this bar. I have the menu bar 
turned off. Below the tab bar is the navigation bar, which can also be 
turned off.  Looks exactly like my Windows 7 setup.  I am running the 
version from the Mozilla tarball of both Windows and Fedora.
