about half way done with the re-write. Just saving some work in case something terrible happens to my machine. Nothing to see here.

getting close enough to start landing this real soon. This patch was too big too upload into bugzilla so I've broken it into two parts, XUL/JS and the locale directory. Blockers: 1) Mac OS X skin work 2) RDF data soures aren't loading in these new dynamic overlays which has some preference settings that show RDF datasources not working. 3) the send options dialog needs more work More adjustments and moving things around will happen after all of this lands.

I have build it, and it is really pretty. I just want to say that animation is kinda slow on my mac mini 1.42 ghz. Could this be tuned to be faster ? Thanks for the great work !

Scott, is this strictly a rewrite of the existing 'options' window, or does it encompass account settings settings as well?

follow up patch to move the connection settings to the general tab, and create a new sound notifications dialog accessible from the general settings panel.

Using 20050309 build - I can't seem to find the offline prefs. Forgotten, or just not done yet? ;-)

Scott, we should have a panel for offline (or at least) disk space settings! The option to automatically compress folders should NOT be hidden behind an extra button. It should be in a panel in the prefs UI. It's e.g. essential for users to get rid of deleted virus / worm infected mails. Most users don't know the compress function. Maybe we should enable the automatic compression?! Why do you hide so many prefs behind buttons. We should now be able to have all (or most) prefs in panels in the new prefs UI. Support is more difficult, if we allways have to "route" the users in these "hidden" prefs, where so many clicks are necessary. It's a good thing to have all prefs in the new prefs UI. IMHO it would be a fault to have to many options hidden behind buttons. In past versions it was a pain to locate all the prefs. Now we have the chance to get rid of thousand clicks to do the prefs... And another critic: security > certificates could be in the "privacy" section. IMHO it's more related to that content instead of "advanced" content.

Why don't we group "Connection" (Proxy) and "Offline" prefs instead of "Offline" and "Diskspace"? Okay, there is a relationship between Diskspace and syncronizing mails/news.
