As reported in this message http://www.mozillazine.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=488 , some menu items (Undo, Redo, Cut, Paste, Delete) are useless in the source viewer, since you can't edit the source.

as a fyi, this was done because the UI people thought it best to keep the layout of the menu consistent across all areas rather than have one place where its radically different (muscle memory etc).
I like those features because I can edit the source and save it locally or pick it apart while fixing a page without being forced to save locally...
Hmmm....thanks for the patch but I think we should leave the menuitems.

in response to comment #4: the problem is that you CAN'T edit source from the source viewer..., also in build 20030626, "Select All" is greyed out, until I highlight some text or select "Select All" from right click menu of text area. Is that a new bug?
