Leftovers from bug 1.2a:
Bug 57724 View-source munging pages
This bug makes web development a pain. You cannot see where the problem comes
from. Simply stated: Mozilla lies about what really is on a web page.
Bug 143881 No obvious way to prefill form.
Having this wonderful feature to prefill forms becomes almost useless if it is
so hard to access it.
Bug 63182 Flash plugin context menu doesn't disappear on click, like other right
click menus
Very annoying to have the screen overlayed by a menu.
Bug 110949 Edit draft destoys quotes
This makes the use of the drafts folder useless.
Bug 165203 Bookmarks manager and sidebar bookmarks tab blank with migrated
profile in classic theme

Asa,
Nominate:
Bug 167515 - Cannot install on WinXP SP1 (installer crashes)
At the moment, it looks like this may be preventing anyone on XP SP1 from
installing Mozilla.

Just one mac one, bug 90823.
Not having a window appear when switching to Mozilla is a violation of the Aqua
UI guidelines. The patch even has r/sr.

Bug 127479, [ Drag n drop add to bookmark when no other bookmarks present is

Let me add some long time outstanding features for MailNews:
Bug 16913 Filter news based on any headers
Bug 63389 Need options for importing 4.x and Mozilla mails (mbox)
Bug 87107 "Get all new messages" in news server context menu
Bug 104604 Forward message quoted option missing.
Bug 108877 Support <news:msg-id> URLs
Bug 140377 Make e-mail address available for attribution line
And for the Browser:
Bug 62010 Back menu session history should be unbounded
Bug 104142 want infinite Back
Bug 140886 Add default system services to prefs.js
Clearly, I ask for too much, but if you could push one or two that would be great.

Nominating a regression bug 171261 (Not all cyrillic title letters enter in forms).
Comment 23•22 years ago
|

Well, since my first one got nominated, I'll go for broke.
Bug 26543 is to allow some additional Mac keypresses (most importantly, the
delete key) in the "Manage Bookmarks" window.
There's already an old (March 2000) patch to fix this.

94035 Allow blocking of any media type (flash, plug-in, applet, etc.) by site
(like cookies and images)

Bug 171981 is essential and bug 36339 (patch, old milestone) would be nice.
Comment 27•22 years ago
|

A bug from the last century:
bug 11076 *.eml, news://host/article or imap:// should open the article/mail in
a new mail window
This is a real pain, it makes news/nntp URLs almost useless, since the browser
window is not able to handle these messages properly, e.g., bug 11076 comment
36. In effect this bug blocks many more other bugs than are listed. There is no
hope to support message-ids in news articles as in references without this being
fixed.

for Windows) and its dependent bug, bug 172158 (View Source -> File -> Save Page
As.. Crashes browser [@ XPCWrappedNative::CallMethod])
Comment 30•22 years ago

What about bug 160927 '"Customize Tab" breaks with JavaScript error'?
Surely this is a key feature of Mozilla?
Comment 31•22 years ago

My nominations are...:
bug 32157 [RFE] Title tips (tooltips) for cropped text
(probably the biggest UI *blooper* in mozilla)
bug 62586 Need Titletips (or tooltips) for Cropped Text in Message Header Pane
(the son of mozilla's biggest blooper)
bug 91662 Long strings in mail header cause scroll bars and attachment window to
disappear, making message unviewable.
(very visible bug - second biggest mozilla blooper)
bug 92380 Context menu in Personal Toolbar incorrect when Sidebar items selected
(have you accidentally deleted an entire *bookmark folder* lately?)
bug 22687 [RFE] PGP Plugin
(e-mail "security", pie-in-the-sky?)
bug 56052 Support PGP in PSM
(long neglected, but much *voted* for)

Two show-stoppers have been reported. Those damage major functionalities of
MailNews:

172784 Links not "linkified" in mail & news messages unless format=flowed

reducing page-load time is always a good thing
this one is hot - bug 170116
Comment 34•22 years ago
|
||
I'd like to nominate
Bug 62026 - Inline images in news posts not rendered progressively.
This bug has been languishing for a long time and now even has a rough
fix which just isn't getting any sort of attention. I can vouch that
the fix enhances Mozilla's news and imap experience over dialup enormously.
Comment 35•22 years ago

||
nominating
127398- Searching with "body" makes GUI unresponsive
168066- Mail search does a complete boolean evaluation
fixing either of these would be a HUGE perf win in mailnews search.
Comment 36•22 years ago
|
||
I can't believe nobody has nominated bug 69938 yet - Downloads are stored in
/tmp regardless of path selection.
At the time of writing this appears on the "Most Frequently reported" list with
30 Duplicates, has 57 votes, has CRITICAL severity and is considered both a
dataloss AND performance issue!
Comment 37•22 years ago
|
||
I would like to nominate Bug 52821
This one is around for two years now, the discussion seems to be going nowhere,
many people would love to have at least a small fix, so a quick decision is
needed badly. Status critical, 23 votes, a simple no-risk fix is available.
Implementating other options can be discussed afterwards.
Comment 38•22 years ago
|
||
Nominating bug 159424 (nasty regression caused by the fix for bug 134315)
because it breaks working applications
Comment 39•22 years ago
|
||
My nominations:
Bug 131456, Bug 149607, Bug 171681 (probably duplicates):
memory leaking when closing tabs or windows
This seriously devalues tabbed browsing: depending on the content of the opened
tab or window, I sometimes exhaust almost 200MB of virtual memory within half an
hour, and have to close and reopen Mozilla in order to be able to continue.
Probably, a lot of the memory footprint complaints are, at least partially,
caused by this problem.
Comment 40•22 years ago
|
||
I find this bug very annoying:
Bug 121084
cache: Images requested twice -> "The image cannot be displayed, because it
contains errors." message [when "Compare the page in cache ..." set to "every
time I view the page"]
Comment 41•22 years ago
|
||
Thought I'd mention, bug 133250 has been reopened (regresssion). It was a
1.1beta stopper, so you may want to consider it here as well. Good luck.
Comment 42•22 years ago
|
||
I would like to nominate bug 17483. It's got over 100 votes, is ridiculously
old, nobody seems to be working on it, and I think we can all agree Mozilla
desperately needs it. It's the only thing that keeps me from using Mozilla's
newsreader.
Comment 43•22 years ago
|
||
Nominating bug 162271 Cannot download specific file types, regression, 8 dupes.
Comment 44•22 years ago
|
||
nominating bug 173519: mozilla crashes printing any mail message (Linux,
probably Mac)
Comment 45•22 years ago
|
||
Nominating a recent regression:
Bug 173769: Can't type in the compose window on reply without clicking
Comment 46•22 years ago
|
||
I'd like to nominate bug 173953 -- a very recent (within 4-5 days) regression
that has completely broken replying in plaintext mode in mailnews.
Comment 47•22 years ago
|
||
I'd like to nominate Bug# 69938 and Bug# 65770 which both deal with downloads.
One where a download doesn't check that there is enough free disk space (causes
dataloss), and the other is about why the download doesn't go the the selected
directory immediately (thus avoiding the previous problem).
Comment 48•22 years ago
|
||
I'd like to nominate bug 174017 - Multiple enters after quoted text does not
move cursor
Comment 49•22 years ago
|
||
Another "vote" for Bug 142196. This bug basically prevents companies from
adopting Mozilla as their sitewide mail program if they use POP. It's a serious
problem that leaves a lot of people stuck with Netscape 4 until it's fixed.
Comment 50•22 years ago
|
||
I'd like to nominate Bug# 173703 because it makes mozilla's tabbed UI close to
useless, when people start closing tabs with a middle click.
Comment 51•22 years ago
|
||
Why is Bug 32571 set at the dependency-list of almost each 'make Mozilla xx not
suck'-bug, and than removed after a while? Well, I know, it's not easy to fix,
but this behaviour makes me mad...
Comment 52•22 years ago

Nominate:
Bug 117385 Can't delete/rename a folder with name containing 0x5b/0x5d/0x7c
This bug is critical for Japanese environment.

This should be marked WONTFIX because 1.2b sucks because of bug 174989
Comment 54•22 years ago
|

I want to Concur with Bug 173769 (it really breaks mail for normal use), but I
would add:
Bug 149049 - can't send within Excel (big problem for corporate use!)
Bug 104237 - Mail windows behind calling application (just plain annoying)
Comment 55•22 years ago

So, 1.2b is out for a while now. Closing as fixed.
