1. Go to http://planet.mozilla.org and save the opml file of the subscriptions to disk. 2. Open a feed account and import the OPML file. Actual result: All Thunderbird windows hang until import is finished. Expected result: Provide progress indicator and let user access the other Thunderbird windows like the main window (asynchronous requests or web workers?)

Marking wanted-. We already have too many wanted+ bugs and rss isn't a focus on this release, and there is no actual breakage here. I also think users probably aren't going to hit this too much. We could still accept patches but only if they are small and low risk.
