> Hey Paul! Thanks for looking into this!
> Your hypothesis looks right.

> The files you were looking for are in the daily directory, but they are zipped into omji.ja which has most of our frontend code.
> For testing purposes, here's how to tweak frontend files (.xhtml/.js) in your live installation:
> - Modify your daily command line:
>    `"C:\Program Files\Thunderbird Daily\thunderbird.exe" -no-remote -purgecaches -devtools -allow-downgrade`
> - Update Daily and restart it to ensure updates are applied
> - In Thunderbird Daily folder, rename omni.ja to omni.zip
> - unpack its contents into the same folder of omni.ja (Thunderbird Daily)
> - change unpacked source files in text editor
> - restart Daily to test your changes
> - use developer tools/error console for debugging (clear error console before testing your changes)
> 
> - Note: If an (updated) omni.ja is present, your flat/unpacked install with your changes will be ignored. Try this to prevent updates:
>   `Options > Updates > Daily Updates > Allow Daily to: Check for updates, but let me choose whether to install them`
>   From my observation, and in violation of this setting, Daily will force-update and change that pref within a few days. If your manual edits to source files have no effect, double check for unwanted presence of omni.ja - probably Daily has updated behind your back.
