The xul widget <menulist editable="true"> combines a textbox (input field) with a popup menulist. The default behavior for this has been modified according to expected standards, but there are bugs with the current behavior. This bug is to track the necessary changes neede to make it work correctly in Composer's Advanced edit dialog (bug 71743) and in the Forms Manager (bug to be filed soon.)

Adding blockers.

Ready for review

When I apply the patch given here, I get the message: Patching file menulist.xml using Plan A... Hunk #1 failed at 174. Hunk #2 failed at 269. 2 out of 2 hunks failed--saving rejects to menulist.xml.rej done

I believe that the reason the patch is failing is that I am applying it against version 1.2 of the file. The patch is against 1.1. And the difference between 1.1 and 1.2 involve the same area that this patch involves. Charlie, you probably need to update your file and then regenerate the patch.

Wait! last one won't work either.

You forgot to remove the diagnostic dump statements from your patch.
