Nominating bug 125987
Nominating bug 28657: Clicking on <LABEL> doesn't put focus in INPUT field
Already fixed in trunk.  Resolves issues with WAI guidelines, Section 508.
Bug 153067 [ unable to type text in other applications sometimes when mozilla 
is running ]

Made Mozilla 1.1 suck because you have to basically shut down Mozilla to be 
able to type in other applications. Due to this also you shut down Mozilla when 
you want to shut down OTHER apps.
nominating the following bugs, as they are needed by a major embedding customer
who will be shipping off the 1.0 branch.

bug 14835    No visual indication that you've selected a picture to forward in
email (READ) (See also Bugscape 7868)

bug 162894  Extend universal detector's coverage to include iso-8859-1 (See also
 Bugscape 19234)

bug 164201  Quoted text in GB18030 gets repeated in reply or forwarded email

bug 132759  [HANG]high(100%) cpu usage with Flash: WM_USER+1 events given too
high priority and starve UI

bug 19636   Embedding Pull Should include XMLExtras

bug 164204  Need Level 3 IME Support on winxp for MS PinYin v3 ime

bug 163682  FTP download: non-ascii filename is not shown correctly via "Save
Link Target As"

Additionally ...

bug 157144 Painting gets suppressed more than it probably should

... would be a good one to get to allow users to interact with the UI while the
page is loading, while preventing the impression of a hang.
Nominating bug 96813, since its fix also fixed the accessibility issue bug 28657
(see comment 11).
(Dumb?!) question:
I hope that all checkins for the 1.0-OEM-branch are checked-in into the
1.0.2-branch, too - right ?
Adding bug 168057 ("RFE: Apply fixed and improvements for OEM branch to
1.0.2-branch, too...") to the dependicy list per jesup's permission ("<jesup>
(you have my permission to add it to the 1.0.2 not suck bug)") - we should pull
most of the fixes&improvements for the OEM-branch into the 1.0.2-branch, too...
Depends on: 168057
Nominating bug 159016 [OSX] Inline IME does not work in composer and text area
when the Flash 6 plugin is running, as this is needed by a major embedding customer.
What about the secret bug 90757? "Make mozilla 1.0.1 not suck" depends on it,
shouldn't this one as well?
Depends on: 169583
Nominationg bug 145375 - Update google sharlock file to support Unicode.
As for the google.src in google.com is already updated to UTF-8 and if this
update is included in Moz itself, it helps local shipping, reduces exertions for
l10n.
My (updated) nominations are...:

bug 91662 Long strings in mail header cause scroll bars and attachment window to
          disappear, making message unviewable.
          (the current patch made it worse! see bug 91662 Comment #218)
Bug 56301 connect a spellchecker engine for Mozilla
          (make testing mail/news on a daily basis emberazing for som uf ous) ;)
Bug 169638 front end work for spam / junk mail
           (Sounds Very cool. I'm drowning in SPAM. See Bug 169638 Comment #121)
Bug 72493  support threaded, sorted view
           (this newsgroups hamperer is ready for a beatin')
Nominating (FWIW):

bug 113536  tooltips don't handle mousedown event

because it sucks so much.  I trigger the bug every time I try to open
a tab using a contextual menu because the tooltip gets drawn over the
second menu item in the contextual menu ("Open Link in New Tab").
Apparently I am pre-disposed to left-clicking the menu item after 
right-clicking for the contextual menu itself.

See my 42nd comment in bug 113536 for details (and a workaround).

Note that bug 32157 has already been nominated (which bug 113536
blocks).  Also nominating for Mozilla 1.2.
Nominating bug 32571. Has a patch and r+/sr+
As Netscape has released 7.01, which is based on 1.0.2, there are some people
wondering where is moz 1.0.2?
Resolving the bug as fixed, since 1.0.2 is out for a while now.
Status: NEW → RESOLVED
Closed: 22 years ago
Resolution: --- → FIXED
Verifying as the fact is pretty obvious.
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Is there a "make mozilla 1.0.3 not suck" bug?
No. Neither is "make mozilla 1.3beta not suck". It seems Asa dropped the "not"
suck idea.
