How do I get the Back Button drop down menu back?

When surfing in a tab there used to be a drop down menu next to the forward and back buttons. It was a little tiny triangle looking arrow. This was really useful and needed. It is gone in Firefox 4 as far as I can see. I am using the default 4.0 Theme. If it is not there anymore I will have to go going back to 3.16 if the drop down menu is gone. Thanks for any help.

If you right-click the back or forward buttons you will get a list of the previous sites that you visited. Holding down either button will have the same effect.

Yeah, I could do that, but I can do that in the other versions as well. I just want the little arrow/tab back. I do not need to try and remember all the little "tricks" to make a program work. Guess I will just go back to 3.16 and wait for a fix or check out Chrome. Thanks for the answer.

I do prefer Right-click on tab for tab history, or hold a couple of seconds, as the drop-down marker takes up space and had been removing it myself. Although I think it should have been an option.
