when in the places organizer tree, opening up the most used tags the first time, get an error in the console.

I think it happens when calling open container to figure out count for most
used tags, but they are not (yet) visible.

note, as far as I can tell, this doesn't cause any problems for the end user.

invalid spin off bug, because before the code that caused this problem landed, this problem was fixed by using ignoreInvalidateContainer

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.
