User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8a) Gecko/20040505
Build Identifier: version 0.6 (20040502)
To conform with platform interface standards on Mac OS X, the help menu should
be slightly rearranged:
The main item, "Mozilla Thunderbird Help" should come first (before "Release
Notes") and have Cmd+? as the shortcut key.
"About Mozilla Thunderbird" should be removed, as it's already in the standard
location in the application menu.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Hit Cmd+?
2. Look at help menu
Actual Results:
Nothing at all happens on Cmd+?; help menu is misordered.
Expected Results:
Should launch help page on Cmd+?; help menu should be orderly with standard
shortcuts and appearance.

Here's a better way to fix this that doesn't involve pre-processing
messenger.dtd.
Also I had to put back the reference to about thunderbird in the help item
otherwise we don't get the help menu item in the application menu anymore.

I tweaked Jon's patch a little bit.
Also I didn't check in the OS X core changes as I don't know enough about that
portion of the Mac code to know if it's the right thing to do.

The Help menu still has the redundant "About Mozilla Thunderbird" as of version 0.7 (20040616).

See bug 215893. I have a new pacth forthcoming that fixes this the right way. I
just need to do a debug session to make sure I don't leak anything.
