18980 - [Feature] UI: Need to implemeted the status bar (priority popup)

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(MailNews Core :: Composition, defect, P4)

Description

[Jean-Francois Ducarroz]

Statusbar for message compose isn't yet implemented. The user should be able to select the priority of the message
and maybe some other params or status text

I think we agreed to have the widgets for priority, etc. live in the Message
menu, but to display any non-default choices as static text in the status bar.

nbaca - can you see if a user can set the priority of a message when composing 
regardless if it's from the status bar or not?  Thanks.

When creating a message the priority of the message can be set using the 
Message|Priority menu. Priorities range from Highest to Lowest. The change in 
priority is not reflected in the new message/composer status bar but does 
display in the thread pane when the message is received.

Moving target milestone to "future" to be reviewed at a later time

This is not a good idea. The status bar now only houses the progress bar, the
status text, the security info, and the online/ofline icon. This is not the
place for individual message formatting options. A more logical place would be
next to the subject text box. (That's if you need a popup anyway. It is already
in the menu.)

Either way there is no reason for things like that in the status bar. (Which has
pretty much the same functionality in all components) If you are going to add
this, then there needs to be a different status bar for message compose.
