When no Default Feed Viewer is configured, as in the case with a brand spankin' new account created in a virgin Leopard install, the Default Feed Viewer pop-up menu in the Navigation-I-mean-General preference pane shows up empty. This looks pretty bad. I think we should replace it with a localized string ("None" in English), but see bug 352451 comment 4.

I believe that's supposed to be "Select…", so perhaps this is fallout from bug 352451 comment 4? Regardless, we should make it work and say something informative.
Flags: camino1.6b1?
Select… is the thing at the bottom of the list that lets you pick your own application. That should never be the default value of the pop-up when you open the pref pane. The empty entry is something else. http://bonsai.mozilla.org/cvsblame.cgi?file=/mozilla/camino/src/browser/AppListMenuFactory.mm&rev=1.6&mark=160-162,170-174#151
Markus, is this a bug you might be ready to tackle?
Since this is trivial to fix, and we like to make mento happy, +ing for 1.6b3

Attached patch Cocoa copy-paste, for less ugly (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
So, Stuart Friday said I should be able to use my copy-paste skills to fix this bug, and, through the miracles of mxr and copy-paste in Cocoa, I present to you this patch. It seems to work, and Camino doesn't appear to crash or growl at me as a result. I'm not entirely thrilled with my localized string choice; maybe mento's "None" is really the way to go?

Nit: you should probably use nil instead of NULL if you want Cocoa bonus points.
Oh, other than that, r=me if you want it.
(In reply to comment #7) > Nit: you should probably use nil instead of NULL nil would be incorrect; a selector is not an object pointer type.
I tend to agree that "None" would be better
Switches the string to "None" (and gets rid of the stray extra hunk that slipped in to the .strings from one of Stuart's patches). Carrying forward the r=hwaara from comment 8, which I believe still stands.

Comment on attachment 303969 [details] [diff] [review] uses "None" (and no excess hunk) >+"NoDefaultReader" = "None" This line is missing the semicolon at the end, which will make the world a sad place. sr=smorgan with that fixed.

Checked in on the trunk and MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH with the semicolon to keep the world a happy place. mento, please have a lovely (rest of) President's Day. :)
