1705288 - Create a list box widget that can handle a very large number of entries

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Address Book, enhancement)

Description

[Geoff Lankow (:darktrojan)]

We need a list widget that can handle a very large (~100,000) entries without using a lot of memory or performing slowly. While this many entries is unlikely in the Address Book there are intentions to use this widget elsewhere that could have a lot of entries, so we'll use the new Address Book UI as a test bed.

This will be an HTML widget that allows each row to be a custom element. For different purposes, we'll use different row custom elements.

This is the second of the list box widgets needed for the new Address Book UI.
