<rant> This was caused by implementing bug #1261685, which merely furthered making Firefox more like Chrome. See <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1261685>, where the discussion indicated a concern about breaking the Bookmarks capability. Apparently, that concern was not sufficiently taken into account. This is one more example of the developers making a change that has little substance but horrific consequences. In the meantime, actual bugs (errors, not enhancements) remain unfixed. </rant> -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>. Sarah Palin claims Bill Nye (the "Science Guy") is no more a scientist than she is. Nye has a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering. Palin has degree in communications with an emphasis on journalism. Somehow, engineering seems to be more scientific than journalism. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
