227409 - Extension Options panel should remember last extension selected

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect, P3)

Description

[Ben Goodger (use ben at mozilla dot org for email)]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Have more than one extension installed, each with their own options panel
2. Open the Options dialog and choose Extensions, then select another extension.
Bring up its options panel and make a change. Click OK, and then OK again to
dismiss the Options dialog. 
3.Open the Options dialog again, go to Extensions 

Actual Results:
1. The first extension in the list is selected

Expected Results:
1. The last extension I selected should be selected, so I can tweak its options
again. 

This is especially annoying if you're making ongoing adjustments to an
extension's options.

I checked with 1.0.4 and if I did the steps correctly then this one works for me :)

Because Extensions is on its own and no longer in the Options dialog, I opened
Extensions from the Tools menu, selected the fourth extension, opened extension
Options, changed a preference, clicked OK, closed Extensions dialog, re-opened
it, and the fourth extension was still selected.

Most likely fixed by the aviary landing.

sorry for bugspam, long-overdue mass reassign of ancient QA contact bugs,
filter on "beltznerLovesGoats" to get rid of this mass change
