1488807 - [de-xbl] Remove dialogheader binding.

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Account Manager, task)

Description

[Arshad Khan [:arshad]]

dialogheader has description attribute[1] which is never used except one time in /suite[2]. I am thinking of converting it into custom element. Should I add dialogheader-description or not into the new element?

Looking at the few isolated usages of dialogheader, it seems to me it would be preferable to get rid of this element by open coding it. It woudl be replaced by a label (and perhaps a containing box?) easily. There's no functionality, only some css.

That said, don't let it stop the work you're doing to get the "infrastructure" set up (customElements.js file) as that would be useful elsewhere.

So to answer what to do with the description: nothing.

Makes sense?

For WIP patches, ask for feedback only.
When you think the patch is ready, then ask for review.

Is there a second patch / follow-up bug and patch coming for the suite/ parts?

I am not sure whether I have to create a second patch / follow-up bug for suite. I think Magnus will be right person to ask this.

I don't think we should fix up suite here. But we can clone the bug to suite and let seamonkey people handle suite/ parts there.
