The identifier for the Browser window changes (mozilla, netscape and sometimes nothing) very often. Need to decide on the identifier, as it breaks the automation script. If the name is different.

What do you mean by identifier? I don't understand this bug. Do you mean window title?
Yes, I mean window title.

We would like to sitck with one identifier. netscape or mozilla. This affects automated tests (breaks them when title changes). Can we fix ASAP? If not M5, then M6?

David, how hard is this to fix? And what will it mean once we separate the Netscape commercial build from the Mozilla build?

I wasn't aware that we were prepending the our brand name yet. Should be easy to fix once we decide what the right solution is. What should be happening is that we fetch a string using the XP_GetString replacement function. One thing to note is that there are a bunch of potential window names laying around. There is a widget's name, there is the xul document name, and there is the content name and I am not sure which ones should match.
Hi, leger on bsharma Bugzilla acct here.... Just spoke with cyeh. Please go with "mozilla" for all identifiers and branded elements for now. He said we will deal with Netscape brand later. so, can we go wiht mozilla and stick with it ASAP? Thanks!

Per don: David (Matiskella, not McCusker :-) will likely do a temporary fix for M7. As you suggested, he'll use "Mozilla" for all the identifiers and branded elements until Matt Fisher completes the separation of the mozilla and commercial builds in M8.
