Comment 32 for bug 849624

Bienvenu or Mvl: Can ya'll help me understand what the "right" fix for Thunderbird should be? Then I'll make sure that bug is filed against Thunderbird trunk. I'm with Sven and am a bit confused w.r.t. what needs to change there. If there is no bug filed against Thunderbird for this feature, then I'd like to reassign this bug to Thunderbird so we don't lose the historical context.

Sven: Even if this were to somehow magically to be fixed on Thunderbird Trunk, the likelihood that the fix will be ported to the Thunderbird 2.x branch is very low. Therefore, I'd like to ask you to consider providing this functionality in an extension. Even five percent of our users is quite a measurable number of people, so I think it'd be a good extension to have available. Feel free to open another bug in bugzilla to track your work on the extension. Thanks for your patience and your help.

In light of this, I'm going to clear the review ? flag up above.
