Bug 233339 changed the world of cookie prefs and finally unforked the final two prefs that were #ifdef'd MOZ_PHOENIX. Now we just need to look at the pref panel and make something a little more clear and a little less ugly. firebird.js needs to be updated too (didn't get to that part yet, the migration code will kill the prefs spawned from there on startup, I intend to fix this within a week at most, and hopefully sooner)

Why doesn't the 'Block cookies' radio disable the 'Cookie Lifetime Policy' settings? We can now setup: 'Block cookies' and 'Accept cookies normally' and that can't be right! Can you please replace 'Accept cookies normally' with something like 'Use expiration set by cookies' or 'Use expiration specified by cookies'. There's nothing 'abnormal' about changing the lifetime of cookies. Can you change: (.) Allow cookies based on your Privacy Settings [_V_iew] into: (.) Allow cookies based on your [_P_rivacy Settings] Using 'View' for the button is not right, because you can also modify your settings. What is the purpose of: network.cookie.alwaysAcceptSessionCookies and pref.advanced.cookies.disable_button.more_info ? Can you change for="lifetimeDays" into control="lifetimeDays", because clicking on 'days' now won't select the 3th radio, as it should. Why did you remove 'Ask for each cookie' from 'Cookie Acceptance Policy'? What exactly is 'Ask for each cookie' now?
HJ: this isn't the right bug for these comments, this is Firefox, not Seamonkey. If you want to complain about the UI in Seamonkey, file a seamonkey bug against me.

Done, see bug 238554

First real crack at this
Ben's planned UI for this is good enough for me :)

Did you want to point us to that, or just leave us guessing?
I can leave you guessing, or ask me later on IRC
sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs, filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
