613777 - Window, Zoom menu is a toggle but never gets checked *on*

Status: VERIFIED WONTFIX

(Thunderbird :: Toolbars and Tabs, defect)

Description

[Frank Burleigh]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b8pre) Gecko/20101120 Firefox/4.0b8pre
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b8pre) Gecko/20101116 Thunderbird/3.3a1

The Zoom function under the Window menu acts like a tootle: TB is full screen or in a sized window.  But the menu item is never checked, like some of the other toggle-able menu items.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Size the TB window.
2. Use Window, Zoom (window grows, but there's no check on the menu)
3. Use Window, Zoom again (window shrinks)


Expected Results:  
It does seem obvious what state the TB window's in, but for consistency if not close cases, you should check the menu item when it's been activated.

I've just checked Apple's own Safari, Preview and Mail apps - the behaviour is exactly the same there.

So although it is strange and possibly not as clear as it could be, I think this is currently invalid unless Apple changes the behaviour there sometime in the future (I expect it would require some complicated overloading of Mac's menu functions).
