(In reply to Blake Winton (:bwinton - Thunderbird UX) from comment #124) > Charles: There's no official procedure,
Hmmm... before I go open a bug/feature request for this, what would be the proper way to formally make such a suggestion? Since an Addon is the ideal way to add new functionality 'outside the box', there really should be a formal procedure for proposing extensions for addition in the core code, and for vetting them and giving it a thumbs up/down - but imo this should be formally adopted by Mozilla for both Thunderbird and Firefox. If you tell me a bug request is the best way, I'll go open one... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/691380 Title: Quick Search Filter should be moveable Status in Mozilla Thunderbird Mail and News: Confirmed Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in “thunderbird” source package in Lucid: Triaged 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?
