Observations relate to Build 2002051006
#1. When trying to import adressbooks from Netscape I cannot use NA2-type files,
but have to apply the indirect way via LDIF-files.
Why is direct import of NA2-files not possible?
#2. When import LDIF-files they appear as completely new addressbooks.
Why is it not possible to merge the imported file in an already existing
addressbook, like in Netscape?
Is handy for insertion of small update-files originating elsewhere, or for
merging of addressbooks.
#3. The name of an imported addressbook seems fixed.
Rightclicking or clicking on Properties while with the cursor on the adressbook
name does not show any reaction.
Because filename sometimes cryptic, the resulting display of the addressbookname
is not very appealing.
Suggested to allow name-change for addressbooks other than Personal Addressbook
and Collected Addresses.

Effect has not been fixed in the 'official'distribution of Netcapse 7.0.
Merging is so much more pleasant than simple 'putting' the imported file in the
addressbook.

I suggest splitting these into three seperate bugs.

Checking the reactions, bugs 64741 and 138980 already seem to deal with the
'naming' of the adressbooks as mentioned in #3.
The formal version Netscape 7.0 can directly deal with import of NA2-file, as
mentioned in #1, and therefore I suspect that later versions of Mozilla can also
deal with it.
Effect which is leftover, is then aspect #2 related to my request to have a
capability to directly merge incoming addressbooks in the existing ones, instead
of putting them in the program as new addressbooks.
Of course there is a practical workaround for this problem [which is to take the
contents of the smallest adressbook and copy it to the selected bigger one
already in place, after which you delete the smallest addressbook], but a direct
merging is 'more elegant'.

Today I installed Mozilla1.3A [Build ID: 2002121215] and must report that this
version still is unable to import Netscape addressbooks of type .na2: result is
a totally blank addressbook.
Furthermore, I tried to import a Mozilla-generated addressbook from another
machine with Mozilla version 1.1 [the exportfile has extension .mab] and this
action totally failed: the result is an adressbook with headers only, and no
content. Only marginally better than with .na2, but not very useful.
Therefore, my 'suspicion' was not correct, and aspect #1 of this bug is NOT solved!

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".
This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.
While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.
If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

#3 is bug 17230 and fixed, #2 as mentioned before is bug 138980, therefore that
leaves bug 35509. Therefore resolving to dup of 35509, as that seems the most
sensible.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 35509 ***

Bug 1122829 - Part 3: Don't fill text right to the edges of the entry fields.
A little padding softens the edges, which looks better with the rounded
corners.

Bug 1122829 - Part 1: Don't animate back presses between activities.
On modern devices (Android 4.4), this gives a smooth "click" back and
forth between Sign Up and Sign In.
