Expected Results: Dialog with options http://www.firefox-browser.de/MediaWiki/images/d/db/AbgesicherterModus.png

Ok heres the intersting bits. Using a debug build as my testbed (since trunk opt is building now): |seamonkey -safe-mode| && |seamonkey --safe-mode| spawned a no-restart SeaMonkey with the _SIDEBAR_ open. I closed it and re-ran, each time sidebar open. |seamonkey| did spawn a restart and did not have sidebar open. I also did get the set-as-default prompt each time (I don't have my trunk builds as default).

Not blocking a3 on it but we should try to get it into one of the betas.

Currently that dialog can't disable all addons for firefox trunk. At least for me.

TB porting FF's dialog in bug 641781.

Neil, if review takes some time, please give at least a general direction whether the strings are acceptable so I can create an extra patch to make the string freeze.

(In reply to comment #6) > We don't have Bug 364297 Change default home page search and default search > engine for Fx 2.0 series. Ah, I see. Still maybe we should leave it in here so this part is ready should we ever use it. But I'll leave that decision to Neil. > > +<!ENTITY resetToolbars.label "Reset toolbars and controls"> > > Not sure what "controls" are but deleting local store deletes all persistent > attributes. I don't know how to word it in a user facing way. FWIW I'd associate "controls" with toolbar items, but in that case it would be pretty redundant here. AFAIK local store is also the place where window sizes are remembered, right? So maybe "Reset toolbars and size settings"?

I suggested over IRC that we add a comment along the lines of: //XXX This code currently doesn't do anything unless the rest of Bug 364297 is ported. To prevent some developer from "optimizing" this code away later on. > AFAIK local store is also the place where window sizes are remembered, right?

One fix might be to use a different notification, such as profile-after-change.

(XUL persist= attribute and JS > document.persist(elementID, attributeName). e.g. "Reset toolbars and settings > other than those stored in user preferences" I think it would be very difficult to come up with something that would fit into a single line - I guess "Reset toolbars and persisted attributes" is still not very user-friendly. Maybe we just accept nothing will be user-friendly and just keep it fairly short and explain it in help pages.

I'll concentrate on l10n issues for now.

IMO that's toolbars (including their contents) and window sizes, but I'm not a localstore expert so maybe there's more. > I guess "Reset toolbars and persisted attributes" is still not very > user-friendly. Right. > Maybe we just accept nothing will be user-friendly and just keep it fairly > short and explain it in help pages. Agreed, but keep in mind that Help cannot/should not be called this early, and that it's hard to predict when this particular topic would be written (given the nature of our development environment).

Reset toolbars, window sizes and other miscellaneous settings?

(In reply to comment #12) > Reset toolbars, window sizes and other miscellaneous settings? Apart from being a bit long it's also, a little too vague. A bit scary, actually, like "may affect anything, even things you didn't know existed". I think we should really look at this from a user's perspective rather than trying to be exact or all-encompassing (I think we'd fail on both anyway).

Then Yes. > So, the problem here is that even if you want to restart, profile startup > still gets to finish. One fix might be to use a different notification, such > as profile-after-change. Unfortunately I don't know how to check whether that makes any difference, but I tried to apply what you suggested (and of course checked that the parts I could observe still work).

Just for consistency, since "accept" prevents the window from closing (except as part of the restart process).

Remove the explicit calls to add/removeObserver 2.
