(Whiteboard: [places-ui])

The advanced search UI should allow users to filter specifically by tags with a "Contains the tag" filter, that produces a text field to the right.  Beltzner would like to see this get in for M9.
Whiteboard: [places-ui]
M9 is right 'round the corner. Any bugs you want in M9 should have a target milestone of M9, and request blocking-firefox3.
Flags: blocking-firefox3?
Flags: blocking-firefox3? → blocking-firefox3+
Target Milestone: --- → Firefox 3 M10
Target Milestone: Firefox 3 M10 → Firefox 3 Mx
Not being able to create smart folders for tags really reduces their overall usefulness.  Are we sure we want to push this out to Mx?
Target Milestone: Firefox 3 Mx → Firefox 3 M11
Priority: -- → P3
This definitely needs implementing!
Target Milestone: Firefox 3 beta3 → Firefox 3
Ideally, the advanced search UI would allow filtering by any bookmark/page property. i.e. any column that can be displayed in the search results pane should also be searchable.
I think that in addition to tags, visit count and keyword should be searchable. The description and date/time fields would just be nice to have.
I filed bug 413134 a while back as a request to improve the overall robustness of query creation.

Not blocking on this bug for final ship. Would take a safe enough patch if one comes through.

Doesn't the blocking-fx3+ for bug 422977 kind of conflict with the wanted-fx3+ for this bug? Seems to me they're a tad mutually incompatible.
This was a tracking bug for Firefox 3 development, resolving invalid since bug 393510 was resolved invalid as well.

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.
