The "Next" and "Previous" buttons used to be like this in FF2: "_Next >". Now, they include a GTK stock icon: "[->] _Next >". I think we should get rid of the ">" now.

Reproducible: Always

This shows the current look of the button, the example is taken from the update dialog. I think it is used somewhere else also
Summary: Next/Previous dialog buttons → Next/Previous dialog buttons have redundant ">"
Was this fixed? I'm looking at my dialogs including the update one and none have the > after Next or the < before Previous
Right now I don't see it, I will check again after tomorrow's build is out but maybe it has been fixed silently ;)

It's partly fixed I think. Next/Prev don't have the >> anymore, but "Download & Install Now" has. See screenshot.

This is a language fix, so I'm not exactly sure who to request review/superreview from.  Heck, I don't even know if this patch is allowed since I believe the language freeze happened already

Removes the » from the update dialogs

We're not going to remove these from all platforms simply because the new Linux theme includes an image that makes them redundant.

Looked into this a little more, and we might just want to consider removing the text-arrows from all wizard panel buttons. They're not really native to any OS that I can remember (XP, maybe?)

Now that I think about it these have slightly irked me but I never spent enough time thinking about it to realize that it's because they aren't native.  I totally agree that we should remove all forms of textual arrows from all platforms.
OS: All → Linux
These entities where removed on mozilla-central and new entities and strings are now used without textual arrows
