Final review of APIs (names etc) before turning this feature on.

Comment 1

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

Some areas for discussion: 

- tying nsITreeView implementation to history result
- allowing others to implement node object
- allowing referencing a third party component using contract-id-embedded-in-place: uri
- searching third party containers whose contents aren't added into the main table (shaver)

I think we're in pretty good shape.

Bug 451915 - move Firefox/Places bugs to Firefox/Bookmarks and History. Remove all bugspam from this move by filtering for the string "places-to-b-and-h".

In Thunderbird 3.0b, you do that as follows:
Tools | Message Filters
Make sure the correct account is selected. Click "New"
Conditions: Body   contains   places-to-b-and-h
Change the action to "Delete Message".
Select "Manually Run" from the dropdown at the top.
Click OK.

Select the filter in the list, make sure "Inbox" is selected at the bottom, and click "Run Now". This should delete all the bugspam. You can then delete the filter.
