Open a new tab and load something. 2. Zoom in or out a few times -- full content or text only, doesn't matter 3. Cmd-L and type in about:config, return AR: about:config list is bigger/smaller than normal and can't be re-sized because zoom functions are disabled. ER: EITHER A. about:config should always display at constant size, like about:bookmarks|history OR B. zooming functions should not be disallowed. (At the very least "Actual Size" should be enabled.) The inherited zoom state also affects the about:config warning dialog-page-thing that appears when opening about:config for the first time. This goes back to 2.0 so maybe it's what you intended, but it seems odd to me that I can get into a zoomed state but am prevented from using the usual zoom menus/buttons to get out of it. In 1.6, Make Text Bigger/Smaller was allowed on about:config. Reproducible: Always

I'm pretty sure disabling the zoom functions on about:config was intended, but inheritance of the parent (previous) tab's zoom state was not. We should definitely fix this. (The reason it doesn't affect bookmarks or history is because those are actual Cocoa views; about:config is XUL.)

I don't know if there's a way to manually reset the zoom level on our end when we're entering about:config (or the "XUL half" of about:config), but even if there is, we're then going to be creating our very own bug 503729 unless we can also store the value and re-set it when leaving about:config :( Maybe hendy will have some good ideas when he's back? (I broke this back in bug 382688 by filtering XUL out of isTextBasedContent.)
