When the name of a Live Bookmark article is too long, firefox don't expand the
lenght of the submenu. Right now you can only read the beginning.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Add http://www.hatrack.com/feed.xml as a Live Bookmark
2.Open the folder to see articles name

Actual Results:  
Some name/titles don't appear fully ("Shadow Children, I, Robot, A Cinderella
Stor..." instead of "Shadow Children, I, Robot, A Cinderella Story, and Tomatoes")

Expected Results:  
Expanding lenght of the sub menus to display the full name.
It should only abbreviate names when the name is so long that there is really no
way it fits on one line.

This is an automated message, with ID "auto-resolve01".

This bug has had no comments for a long time. Statistically, we have found that
bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are
highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code.

While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we
are asking for your help in focussing our efforts. If you can still reproduce
this problem in the latest version of the product (see below for how to obtain a
copy) or, for feature requests, if it's not present in the latest version and
you still believe we should implement it, please visit the URL of this bug
(given at the top of this mail) and add a comment to that effect, giving more
reproduction information if you have it.

If it is not a problem any longer, you need take no action. If this bug is not
changed in any way in the next two weeks, it will be automatically resolved.
Thank you for your help in this matter.

This issue isn't ressolved in Firefox beta 1.
It is still impossible to read RSS news with long description
Hope this issue can be easily fixed (waiting so long)

sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs, filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
