Description

[mws]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051202 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008051202 Firefox/3.0

When trying to view the properties of a bookmark with a live title that has a long url, a very long and unusable properties sheet appears.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Bookmark a site with a live title that has a long url (for example a bugzilla query)
2. Save the bookmark to the bookmarks toolbar and set the bookmark name as the live title.
3. Right-click on the bookmark on the toolbar and select Properties
Actual Results:  
A very long properties sheet opens.  Before the live title is shown in the drop-down in the long sheet, the live title url appears for a second.  The drop-down in the sheet appears to be sized to accommodate this long url.

Expected Results:  
A normal sized properties sheet opens.

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.
