396596 - Center the download manager's active/other-download-titles, add title-line on the left side

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Toolkit :: Downloads API, defect)

To improve the look of the download manager, I think we should center the active/other-downloads-title and add a title-line to the left of them to center the titles.  It would make the download manager look much more professional and polished.

Patch upcoming in case this is wanted.

I believe a ui-review is needed first? If not sorry about that Mike.

Yup, ui-review would be required :)

I don't think this is actually an improvement, though. Center alignment takes too much attention.

Note: I hacked these together with paint, so its not to scale ;)

Mike, any suggestions on improvements then?  I can't stand the titles being on the left side like that with a line on the right.  It just appears that the left line is missing and the title should be centered.

A different indentation than what is used to for the downloads themselves makes it a lot easier to instantly read/recognise.

Bug 399781 will remove the titles, so this bug would become invalid.

The Active/Completed titles are now gone because of bug 399781, so there's no title to center.
