63455 - Sidebar should be hidden by default in Composer

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: DOM: Editor, defect)

Description

[(not reading, please use [e-mail] instead)]

I couldn't find a bug on this, so I started it.

(there is talk about adding sidebar to message compose.)

I can live with that, but we should make sidebar hidden by default in editor and
message compose.

if the unthinkable happens and make it open by default, we should make it
controlled by a pref so it only does that for ns builds, and not for mozilla.

adding ducarroz and sfraser (message compose and editor gurus) to the cc list
for comments.

Adding Mail3 keyword. Is there a separate bug for adding sidebar to compose?

I'm changing the subject and removing the mail3. I'm also reassigning to beppe. 
We need a separate bug regarding message compose.

[Since bug 63900 is covering both the sidebar's presence and its default state in 

message composition windows, this bug should just cover default state in Composer 

windows. Removing dependency, moving to -->Editor.]

"Hidden" is set "false" by default.

verified in 1/17 build...

files a new problem in that you can't open sidebar using grippy for compose.
