Bug Description

Binary package hint: mozilla-thunderbird

Under thunderbird 2.0.0.16+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.8.04.1

When switching focus between panes via ctrl+tab, the focus used to come to the body of the message when tabbing into the message pane. This allowed the user to scroll up and down, and read the message. 99% of the time, scrolling is the only way I interact with the message pane.

Currently, focus arrives on the message subject it, highlighting it to allow copying (I presume.) It serves no other apparent function, and every time I use it I must hit tab twice to get to the message body and scroll (which is cumbersome.)
