Need separate controls for bookmarks bar?

more options

I want icons in the nav bar (backward, forward and the other stuff up there), but text only in the bookmarks bar where space is at a premium. right now, whatever choice is made impact ALL toolbars.

Up until 4.0, you could do this. Am I missing something here? Is there a workaround? Thanks.
