spinning this one off bug 539416

The remote image bar is very tall and eats space off the message preview area.

Not sure about the wording yet, suggestions are welcome!
Attached patch and here is a quite raw patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Still some work left in order to get it to actually work :)

I like the mockup, in general the single line thing is looking great.

I would go with ( Options | V ) ( Show Remote Content ) as the buttons.  The ( ? ) button looks cool.  It would be nice if we had a little popup that gave you a quick help text and linked to a KB article on the subject.
Does this patch still apply to current TB codebase (TB7-8-9)? 
Will you request a review or all the work in comment 4 must be done first?

Height of notification bar was cured in bug 562048, as hinted by reporter's 562048 comment 4.
That bug also changed the underlying notification bar code completely, hence the draft patch is obsolete.

There are some good ideas in the mockup attachment 422039 [details]:

* (?) button aka Help/Learn more button on respective notification bars like Remote Content/Junk/Scam, where user can get more information about the problem (popup with short info and links to more)
-> This needs a new bug if it's not filed yet

* [Show Remote Content] button in addition to existing [Options] button on remote content notification. We're currently trying to get green light for the combination of the two in bug 1062961: [Show Remote Content | v], where clicking on the |v| will popup the options dropdown.
-> Over to bug 1062961 (pls vote or comment if you think single-click [Show Remote Content] button is a good idea...)

So I think we can close this. Thanks.
