If you have a quick filter selected for a folder, then select a "main" folder ("Local Folders"), then switch back to the original, the button for the quick filter stays depressed, but the filter is not applied.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select the Inbox in an account folder.  
2. Apply the "Unread" quick filter by pressing the button.  
3. Select any account folder (e.g.  "Local Folders" ) (not a folder of the account -- the actual bold account folder)
4. Select the same Inbox you selected in Step 1.
Actual Results:  
The unread quick filter button stays selected (regardless of pin state), but the filter is not actually applied (i.e. the folder shows all the messages, not just the unread ones)

Expected Results:  
Depends on pin state.  If pin selected, unread filter should be applied.

If the pin is not selected, the quick filter button state should have been reset to off.

Seems to work as expected when you select another mail folder instead of an account folder.  Also works as expected when, in step 4, you select a different mail folder instead of the original mail folder.

Bug also appears on the Mac version.

Attached file File with purposed bugfix (obsolete) —
Hi,
 I'm working in an extension that works with the filtering capabilities of Thunderbird called "Unified Search", I found this bug breaking my code and I did a bugfix from my extension, available from version 0.6.3 (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/unified-search-187593/versions/1272083) to try it.
 It works, after that I decide modify the original file to apply my bugfix and this is what I'm uploading here called quickFilterBar-fixed.js.
 Original file is located at omni.jar!/chrome/messenger/content/messenger/quickFilterBar.js
 I don't know if is the best solution, or the best code, but works. I expect that, if is not the valid code, almost help to find the best solution.
Patch over the previous complete file. The original file I used is from release 7.0.1.
I forget to say the bug happens too in Linux (Ubuntu 11.04), with Thunderbird versions from 3.1 to 7.0.1.

Same proposed bugfix that previous file but in patch format

Setting the r? so that your patch can get reviewed.

Wondering if we need to also add a unit test.

this doesn't actually apply as a patch against our repo...I'll try to convert it into a patch.

Attached patch tweaked patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
I tweaked the patch (edited the comments, shortened some lines, got rid of temp vars, etc) but the patch didn't fix the issue. I don't think I messed up the logic of the original patch, but it didn't work for me.

tweaked patch

Robert, could you try my version of the patch against the trunk and see if it works for you? Thx!

Hi David,

 The logic of your last patch is correct but there is a small mistype (missed letter 'p' at aFolderDisplay) here:

if (!aFolderDislay.displayedFolder ||
ah, thx much, that works. r+. I'll land this when I get a chance, and the tree is open...
