In  fx3, the livemarks have a Javascript attribute of 
src=chrome://browser/skin/places/livemarkItem.png

This does not respond to normal manipulations in browser.css, so that the only image that can be used is an image that is located in the browser/places directory, and has the name of livemarkItem.png. 

It is not amenable to a -moz-image-region call, so that a themer cannot assign a differing image for :hover or [open="true"] pseudo-classes. 

Although the default theme has code which attempts to assign the icon to chrome://browser/skin/livemark-folder.png, even using an !important tag, and tries to assign a differing image region for the open pseudo-class, nothing happens.

We themers need to be able to change pseudo-classes.

As far as I can tell, this is not an issue on trunk.

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.
