[Bug 691380]

 

Thanks Charles for yours explanations, and Blake for the criticism, we
need both to be better!

I'm sorry again that I wrote my previous comment before know that new
commens come in (the three last); I decide published anyway because is
valid yet.

Blake, if Esc+Esc (and Esc+Esc+Esc) seems you a design error, another
bug must be created because of is a feature included in Thunderbird, I
only replicated in my extension to match the default behavior (more
explanations in my previous comment).

Thanks everybody,
IagoSRL

Title:
  Quick Search  Filter should be moveable

Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News:

Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “thunderbird” source package in Lucid:

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: thunderbird

  Today I updated lucid 3.0.4 TB to 3.1.7 from security.  I never liked
  the new "smart" search feature but relied mostly on filtering on To,
  CC and recipient.  I had put the search field for that on the menu bar
  so no further screen real estate was used on my netbook.  3.1.7 now
  introduces a UI regression in that that search field is used solely
  for the dumb "smart" search that opens a tab to waste even more screen
  space.  To use the search that I care about I have to use the quick
  search bar, more lost screen space.  And when I actually use it it
  opens another bar to filter and by then I can't even see my messages
  any longer.

  Seriously, netbooks are here to stay.  What were the UI devs thinking
  looking at their 28" TFT display all day?
