Using aug29 commercial build

Here's the filter ui regression du jour. 

When any edit (New, Edit, Delete) takes place in the filter ui, the filter list
is blanked out. Upon next launch of the filter dialog the list appears and
reflects the previous edits. 

1.  From the mail window, launch a profile which has existing filters.
2.  Edit|Message Filters.  Note the existing filters are present in the list.
3.  Click New, add a new filter, OK the filter rules dialog.
    Result:  back at the main filters dialog, the list of filters is now shown
as an empty list. 
4.  OK the main filter dialog, then access filters again.
    Now the list displays showing the previously existing filters and the newly
added filter.

Scenario #2:  Edit an existing filter, OK the filter rules dialog. List in main
dialog disappears until you launch filter ui again.

Scenario #3:  Delete an existing filter, OK the confirmation dialog.  List
disappears until you launch filter ui again.

There are several places in today's builds where refreshing a display doesn't
work until you force another refresh (resize, etc.). 

This filter problem actually will correct if you resize the dialog (didn't catch
that originally).

Anyway, see bug 50691 for main thread pane display problem...probably same
cause.

This is gone with today's commercial build.
OK using aug30 commercial build, linux, mac and NT.
