1789048 - Remove enable/disable states of menu item with global context

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, task)

Description

With the App Menu work focusing on giving quick access only to non-context-specific buttons, we should make sure we don't disable those items depending on contextual states.

The most obvious examples are the Tools, Message Filter and Search Messages being disabled when not in the calendar tab.

Let's make sure to remove all that unnecessary logic once all the items are in place.

The only thing missing from this work is the "New Message" command, which gets disabled when not in the mail tab.
That's a tricky one since that shortcut (CTRL+N) is also used in context for other actions.
I'm gonna mark this bug as resolved and we can handle that after the work on the unified toolbar, once the app menu is visible everywhere.
