currently, contrary to the XUL1.0 doc, many (if not all) XUL boolean attributes *only* works when set to "true" and does not work when set to "false".
critical == 'crashes, loss of data, severe memory leak'. Can you also elaborate on what you mean.

huh. I thought I backed out my patch weeks ago. If not (apparently not), reassign this to me, I'll back it out.

I think that it may be why bannerblind (http://bannerblind.mozdev.org)XUL interface works in Netscape 6.2 but not in a recent Mozilla... is it a regression? Or am I writing deprecated XUL code?

This is something that I would definitely want to see get some traction, since it has a patch. Also, it seems to break a lot of embeddors and XUL hobbyists. :-) Blake, would you take a look at your patch, and update it to the trunk if it is still relevant?

what is the status on this, do we still care about this? I could write patches if someone wants this fixed.

Flags: needinfo?(enndeakin)

The last needinfo from me was triggered in error by recent activity on the bug. I'm clearing the needinfo since this is a very old bug and I don't know if it's still relevant.
