1148974 - Inline Options: The "hidden" attribute does not work

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Toolkit :: Add-ons Manager, defect)

Description

[Patrick Storz]

Attachment: Minimal sample showing the issue

As the sample add-on shows, setting the "hidden" attribute on a setting does not work (or rather it works, as I checked with DOM Inspector, but does not have any visual influence).

The problem is that the following CSS rule in minimal-xul.css [1] 
  [hidden="true"] {
    display: none;
  }
gets overwritten by the following CSS rule in extensions.css [2]
  setting[type="bool"] {
    display: -moz-grid-line;
  }


Note that this example is only for <settings> with type="bool"
However all others <setting> types are also affected!

As of bug 1414406, inline settings are no longer supported.
