To clarify: The default value for Name is "New Query"  which should be changed to "New Search" to be consistent with the use of "Search" through out this process.

Exactly.

yep, totally agree that we shouldn't say New Query.  Perhaps "New Search Folder?" We also need to get that added to the organize menu at some point.  Probably too late due to the l10n freeze unless we already have the strings.

I'd recommend skipping the "Folder". Conflating the ideas of a list of search results and a hierarchical folder you drag'n'drop stuff into is just sacrificing clarity and courting confusion. IMHO. Maybe I'm pedantic.

"New Search" alone feels kind of verb-ish. I'd click on it to start a search.

How about "New Search Results"?

This was changed to "Save Search" a while back -> WFM.

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.
