[JS in MailNews]
As I am sure you know, but for those who do not, in about:config:
javascript.allow.mailnews
Set to true.
That won't have any effect. JS in MailNews is gone for good:
<http://kb.mozillazine.org/Javascript.allow.mailnews>
The reason that the pref is still appearing in about:config is that
the
relevant patch applies against core code which follows different time
schedules. The pref will be removed from about:config in SeaMonkey
2.1.

I guess this doesn't surprise me. Just one more example of the
interface not being in step with the code...now I can't trust what I
see in about:config or what it actually does either?
Thanks.
But hasn't that always been the case, stretching back into netscape?
I believe that there are some vestigial files as well...........

And that's why I'm not a fan of fiddling with about:config...user
input/control should be provided in user Preference panels - it's one
thing if I come here and get info on a workaround from a knowledgeable
individual, in advance of a forthcoming fix, but as a general, generic
user I should never even have to think about about:config.
Just trying to get people to think before/when they code.
But then, how would a novice user even know that about:config even
exists, if not for the advice of a knowledgeable user, or reading a
detailed Knowledge Base article?
Seems to me its not exactly the kind of thing one just stumbles upin
accidentally.

That's my point, exactly. If the code works he should even have to
know. And if he has a problem he can come to a forum and ask.
My wish/hope is that the code works and nobody has a problem - I know
that can't/won't happen 100%, but I'd sure like to see 90% or better in
a "stable" release.
