Public bug reported: I was tracking the upstream bug report #695309 for this issue, which has affected Thunderbird 8.0, the version in Oneiric. The problem has just been patched upstream in trunk and will make it into Thunderbird 12 when that releases (in May, presumably too late for Precise). I filed this bug report to make sure that the change gets noticed and backported to Oneiric post-haste, as it's a pretty major usability failing and there was no bug on LP that was tracking this upstream bug that I could find.
