Can a Windows user that has no idea what "coding" is be of any help when
you say "Help coding it would be appreciated" because I really like the
way the old form manager worked but I'm not sure if I'd cause more
problems than I would solve.
There are two things I can think of:
You can write testcases, that covers every possible scenario involving
the form manager, steps on how to test each scenario, and what the
expected results of the tests should be. I'm pretty sure the bug to
attach it to is <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=480734>,
but I could be wrong about that.
https://wiki.mozilla.org/SeaMonkey:QA doesn't seem up-to-date, but it
has links to valuable resources.
One thing that people sometimes forget is you might know someone that
might be interested in writing the code. If so, try contacting them.
Heck, that's how these newsgroups were created
