I recognized some UI changes. Don't want to start another
discussion about the philosophy of that change, but I expected
with this "massive" UI change we get a "cleaned" menu structure.
It's about getting the exactly same menu at different places ..
if it's necessary to offer a functionality at different places.<br>
<br>
Fe. look at the different occurrences of the "Print" menu:<br>
1. on the 3pane message list -- you have "Print Preview" and
"Print .."<br>
2. on the message in a tab -- you have </small><small>"Print
Preview" and "Print .."<br>
3. on the message in a tab with the pull down menu -- you have
[Other Actions] --> "Print .." <br>
ad 3. NO Print Preview<br>
<br>
Is there an intension to overhaul those inconsistencies with the
next major release? So should we have a look at it with the
upcoming QA section?</small><br>

I would certainly like to see an overhauled menu for the next major
release, but whether or not it gets done depends entirely on the
community. Normally the following phrase is said in a sarcastic
tone, but in this case I mean it genuinely: "Patches welcome!" :)<br>
<br>
The eventual goal is to get to something like <a
href="https://people.mozilla.com/%7Ebwinton/australis/customization/mac/">this</a>
but optimized for Thunderbird. (Or perhaps we should go for <a
href="https://people.mozilla.com/%7Ebwinton/australis/customization/mac/index.html?%7B%22list%22:true%7D">a
list view</a> of the menu instead.)<br>

Thanks,<br>
