400734 - Theme change confirmation dialog (for View -> Apply theme -> ...) should have "Restart SeaMonkey" button

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 492263

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, enhancement)

Description

[Ed]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007102102 SeaMonkey/2.0a1pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9a9pre) Gecko/2007102102 SeaMonkey/2.0a1pre

When the themes is changed via Vied>Apply theme, a dialog appears stating that the changes will take effect next time SeaMonkey is restarted. It would make sense for there to be a "restart SeaMonkey" button here, similar to the one in the add-ons manager.

Since the button is already implemented in the add-ons manager, it should be easy enough to copy it across to this dialog.

Reproducible: Always

I'm not seeing this bug, but it might be because I have MR-Tech Toolkit installed: when I click View -> Apply Theme -> SeaMonkey Default (my preferred theme is Modern) I see a restart yes/no popup from MR-Tech Toolkit twice, once before and once after I dismiss the popup saying the new theme will only be used after the next restart.

Ed, are you still seeing this on current builds? If not, please resolve WORKSFORME.

Clicking on View>Apply Theme>(theme name) in the latest trunk nightly only results in a dialog stating that the change will take effect when SeaMonkey is restarted. 

I don't see the popup you are describing.

OK. Well, then, a possible workaround (until this bug gets fixed) is to install the MR-Tech Local Install extension.
