(Whiteboard: [adt3] [UI])

Trunk build 2003-01-30: All platforms

Overview: When creating a new message view, the "Message view name" should
default to "Untitled". This will help the user realize that they need to name
the view.

Steps to reproduce:
1. In the Views dropdown, select Customize
2. Select the New button

Actual Results: The text box for the "Message view name" is blank
Expected Results: The text box for the "Message view name" should state
"Untitled"(with quotes). This will help the user realize that they should assign
a unique name to this view.

updating summary.

in filters, we do:

untitled filter 1
untitled filter 2
untitled filter 3

to be consistent. 

we should do the same here.  if we always do "Untitled", the user will get a
prompt that the name is already used.
Summary: [mailviews] Message view name should state "Untitled" by default → [mailviews] Message view name should state "untitled view <n>" by default
over to jan (or shuehan, I've been alternating, feel free to trade).

see the filter code for how we did this in filters.

if you have questions, let me know.

actually, I think shuehan has a fix to make it "Untitled Filter <n>" (see bug
#183994)

assuming that comes from the spec (or jglick or robinf), we should do "Untitled
View"

"Untitled View <n>" is OK with me.

If you can confirm that the report doesn't apply to current SeaMonkey 2.x nightly builds, please set it to the appropriate RESOLVED state (WORKSFORME, INVALID, WONTFIX, or similar).
If no action happens within the next few months, we move this bug report to an EXPIRED state.
