252879 - Rename "Exceptions" button that gives access to XPInstall Whitelist UI

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 250543

(Firefox :: Settings UI, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040723 Firefox/0.9.1+

There is some inconsistency in the Options UI, more specifically related to the
new XPInstall Whitelist UI.

If you check in the preferences panel, you'll notice that next to the "Allow web
sites to install software" checkbox, an "Exceptions" button is used to access
the Whitelist UI. However, this really doesn't make any sense. In fact, the
current setup is quite confusing, since "Exceptions" would point to sites that
are _NOT_ allowed to install software, as per the "Allow..." checkbox in front
of it.

Thus, I warmly suggest renaming the "Exceptions" button to something more apt,
such as "Allowed sites", or something similar.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Tools > Options
2. Web Features
3. The "exceptions" button next to "Allow web sites to install software" is not
aptly named.

I would even suggest fixing this before 1.0 RC1, so this is fixed before the
l10n freeze.

Asking for blocking-aviary1.0RC1 .

I think this is a dup, but I can't find the other bug.
