We currently embed XUL inside the HTML document that's generated when viewing feeds in order to show the subscribe UI. With e10s this will no longer be possible as we are not going to support XUL popups from the content process.

The conclusion in the bug summary doesn't seem to be required by the driving force in comment 0. We should be able to just implement (most, if not all of) the current dropdown using a <select>. We would port the existing style and not need new UX.

Summary: [UX] Move feed subscriber UI out of content and into the chrome → [UX] Change feed subscriber UI to use HTML <select> instead of anonymous XUL
retriage for m6, also, we could use some clarification on what the actual fix is going to be. It sounds like ux was planning some big change, but we won't be implementing that here to fix this bug.
so, i have an easy fix from previously that can land (providing it gets an r+) without too much effort. I feel we have two (three in the long run) options here:

1) Remove the XUL menulist stuff from feed subscriber and switch to using HTML select.
2) Add very simple support for XUL menulists to Select{Content,Parent}Helper.jsm whose support is limited in scope to fixing the feed subscriber.

(secret 3rd option, which we should do in the long term - redesign the UX for the feed subscriber to remove all XUL from content)

I think that as options 1 or 2 are strictly interim options to unblock feed subscribing until 3) is done, we should opt for the option that takes the least effort, which is 1. We should probably just land a variation of the first patch on bug 1068626.
Sorry, I meant option 2 is the one that requires the least effort.
Here's the patch I dusted off from an old git branch I had, rebased on current m-c (it had bitrotted quite significantly). It doesn't quite work but it's most of the way there to getting the RSS subscriber UI to be functional as is.

I don't think we need UX in this bug anymore as we can already make XUL dropdowns work or switch to a similar looking HTML <select>.

This is very much a hack though and I think that long term we should investigate moving the feed subscriber out of the content area and into the chrome.

Stealing because gw280 is on PTO.
Assignee: gwright → mconley
I agree that the feed reader stuff should probably get moved into the parent chrome or something, but for now, the workaround to just make the dropdown work is probably more than acceptable.

I figure we can try to make the feed reader great (or dead) in the coming months.

Attached patch 0001-feedwriter.patch (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
My WIP patch. It's not quite functional yet, but it's close.
Attached patch feedwriter.patch (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
So this mostly works now. You can subscribe to the feed using the built-in subscriber, and web handlers work fine. There are a few inefficiencies with the way I've done it right now (like getContentHandlers() just rebuilds the entire handler DB every time we call it).

I'm not sure about the correct way to handle setComplexValue in the child process for the purposes of FeedWriter.js. At the moment I've grabbed the string from the object and sent that over as the object from which the complex value is derived can't be sent cross process. 

I'm just putting this up for review to get some feedback on the direction this is heading in.

Hey George,

I think this is the right direction. I can't say I'm super familiar with the feed reader code - Mano or mak probably know it best. Anyhow, I've poked at it and found a few things. Let me know if you have any questions!

You can actually avoid the repetition here - ES6 allows us to shortcut when the key and value share the same name, like so:

Can we add a switch for event.type here? That's a pretty common pattern when we're reacting to more than 1 type of event in a handler.

There's only one item in this switch statement - might as well just use a standard conditional.

There's an easier way to do this:

let menu = this._document.getElementById("handlersMenuList");
return menu.querySelectorAll(`[${aAttributeName}={$aAttributeValue}]`);

However, there's only one call to this as far as I can see, using webhandlerurl as the attribute name. Might as well specialize this unless you intend on using it elsewhere, so something like:

_getWebHandlerURLElements: function(url) {
  let menu = this._document.getElementById("handlersMenuList");

So wait, multiple items can have this id?

In HTML, we want ids to be unique. If multiple things are going to have this value, it should probably be a separate attribute on the node.

This class doesn't really make sense on a <option> item. Also, menuItem is probably not the right variable name. Should be option or something.

Services.wm should get you the nsIWindowMediator.

Alternatively, you can use RecentWindow.jsm, which exposes getMostRecentBrowserWindow, which should do the right thing.

In any case, avoid using var in here - I think we prefer let now for most cases.

There are some trailing spaces around, please clean them up.

Not the easiest review, sorry if it's a bit long... Globally it look ok, it's a bit complex, but this is feeds code, that is horrible to begin with, so not easy to modify it in a clean way. I will need to have a second look at this :/

OK, so I've addressed most of your feedback. 

I've mostly left out the larger refactorings you've asked for, mainly because I think that such refactorings are outside the scope of this bug. The code is the existing stuff which I didn't write or understand particularly well, so I'm loathe to go too deeply into changing it.

Regarding the bookmarkProperties change, I thought it was because the focusedElement is in the other process, so it's null when we check it there. I'll run a check to see if it was due to bug 1208063.

Sorry for the many coding style comments in the previous review, we are moving towards an eslint world and soon we won't be permissive anymore about coding style.
I see the timeline here, so let's land this, then we can cleanup in follow-ups.

I'm going to do some testing before the final r+, in the meanwhile there's still some things to check.

I'm asking cause before this was using #expand and I don't know if __MOZ_APP_NAME__ (and __MOZ_MACBUNDLE_NAME__) are properly replaced by the preprocessor without that. (I think not)

you should add this to AppConstants and add it to http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/toolkit/modules/moz.build#103
Provided __MOZ_MACBUNDLE_NAME__ is still different from __MOZ_APP_NAME__ (I assume the latter points to the executable, while the former to the app bundle, but things could have changed in years)

To answer your previous question about init() being called every time, this was a deliberate decision as I figured that adding caching would be adding complexity without much benefit as I can't see the performance hit being something that we should be too worried about.

I actually thought it was used to separate local handlers from web handlers? I'm not sure what we should do here, I also found it a little bit odd, but didn't want to block on details. Maybe we should just remove it.
Unfortunately I couldn't find the time to apply the patch and actually try it to figure that out.
Mostly works now, but there are a few refactorings that will be done still and the UI is missing enough spacing between elements.

I'll see about using optgroups in the select list instead of the awkward disabled option that the patch is using.

Those were a hack to give horizontal line separators in the select dropdown. We can't really do it otherwise (we have lineseparator elements in XUL menulists). Mike Conley and I discussed it in the office and we came to the conclusion of "this is terrible, but it probably doesn't matter all that much in the long run".

As for the conversation between me and Blake on IRC, it was done in private. I can provide that patch, and I will make myself available tomorrow to get this sorted if you want.
To clarify, I did look into using the optgroup but it didn't really provide the same sort of visual as the lineseparator element did (and I was trying to preserve existing UX as much as possible). I'm happy to go with whatever you suggest though, if you think optgroups are better than the separator hack.
Fwiw, I think we could just remove the separator. This ui is unlikely to be used by newbies, especially since one needs to add the RSS button to the toolbar first (while time ago it was exposed in the bookmarks menu and in the urlbar). Likely for the current target users it won't be a problem.
Try push with my latest patch, https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=bcba4845dec2

I left in the separators that gw280 and mconley made since without them it looks awkward to have "Choose Application..." between the other options.
Jared, what's the status here? do you need another review? ready to land?

It looks like just the one test failure now - test_bug589543.html?

This should be trivial to fix up; we renamed handlersMenuPopup to handlersMenuList so we should just getElementById() for that id instead.

I don't think this would require another r+, it's small enough to just carry imho.
There is also a bunch of memory leaks showing up in those try pushes that I have been looking in to. Yes, that one test failure is easy to fix and I have that fixed locally, I've just been looking at the memory leaks.

I didn't mean for my comments on IRC to be a secret, sorry about that. I got lazy when typing my review comments. I worried to George that the very generic "set a pref" API could be abused in order to work around the sandbox if a content process got compromised. I originally thought that it could be used to directly run an application but that's mitigated by the fact that the original patch didn't set the right kind of pref. That being said, I'm much happier that the new messageManager API only allows the content process to narrowly set just feedreader prefs (and nothing that could lead to running an application).

This is wrong:
<label id="checkboxText">
  <input type="checkbox" id="alwaysUse" class="alwaysUse" checked="false"/>
</label>

This should be:
<input type="checkbox" id="alwaysUse" class="alwaysUse" checked="false"/>
<label id="checkboxText"></label>

The label is to follow the input not contain it.
I did it like that based on mak's comment 43

Can you explain why you think this is wrong? The text of the label is added by setting the textContent of the last textNode child of checkboxText. See https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/120a0841a9cc#l4.785
Flags: needinfo?(alfredkayser)
a label can contain its input, the only difference is wheter we add text before or after the input... that's mostly a ui decision for which we should probably be consistent with in-content ui.

When a theme wants to style an input, it needs to have the label following the input.

The input is still style-able just like it was before. Are you saying that theme authors may have expected labels to *always* follow inputs and that those assumptions will break some themes? Do you know of a theme that is broken by this?
Flags: needinfo?(alfredkayser)
At least my themes are.
This is because in order to be able to style an input (override the ugly system standard), one has to hide the input itself, and style the label with the nicer checkbox image/styling. 
input{display:none}
input+label::before{background-image(...);...}
etc..

But possibly someone can tell me how to do this for inputs inside a label?
Flags: needinfo?(alfredkayser)
I see what you are saying now. I was able to style the text of the label as I pleased, hide the input, and place some generated content before the label, but I'm not able to propagate the :checked psuedo-class to the label so the checkbox will not appear "checked" without some extra JS.

Gijs, do you think this is something we should refactor the code here to support heavyweight themes better? Personally, I don't think we should, as our current direction sounds like we will want to limit what heavyweight themes can do (within reason), and styling the feed-reader page probably isn't super high on the list of requests.

I mean, tbh, the following:

<label><input> Label</label>

is one of exactly two ways to correctly use a label with an input, the other being:

<input id="whatever">
and then, wherever in the markup,

<label for="whatever"/>

There is no requirement to have the label immediately after the input, and if anything that would make a11y harder to do because all the inputs would need IDs and the labels would all need "for" attributes.

I'm not really sure why a claim is being made that a complete theme needs to be able to hide the checkbox here - the in-content prefs use custom styling for checkboxes and radio buttons, and they don't use the strategy described by Alfred, either.

I don't think we should muddle up the markup here, especially not because it is a pretty small, isolated point of the UI anyway.

[Tracking Requested - why for this release]:
The rss dropdown is still broken in 45, this should be uplifted to fix breakage unless 45 beta will not run e10s.  My understanding is that e10s will be run for some portion of beta users.
George, could you fill the uplift request to aurora? Thanks
