255438 - Help|About doesn't have enough room for vendorComment in useragent

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 238137

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[Jon Granrose]

Was playing with the general.useragent.vendorcomment pref and noticed in ffox
0.9.3 that if you choose "About Mozilla Firefox" from the Help menu, there is
only enough room to display a 7 character vendor comment.  Viewing the about:
page displays the entire UA string however.

Might want to consider adding room for one more line of UA string on the About
Mozilla Firefox page at some point.  This would become more noticeable as people
start producing customized versions of firefox for private distribution.

This is especially bad with the 1.0 PR testing build.  Now even the offiial
version string "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.3)
Gecko/20040901 Firefox/1.0 PR (NOT FINAL)" does not fit.
