Currently, even though we overlay messengercompose.xul with contentAreaContextOverlay.xul we don't actually make use of the context menu from it. If we did, we could remove some code duplication. This patch: * Adds a getBrowser function to the compose window. * Removes unneeded openEditorContextMenu function. * Adds event listener for popupshowing so that updateEditItems is still called. * Removes msgComposeContext context menu. * Adds overlay that gives two missing context items for context menu.

I notice that the mailContext has a hybrid approach - it defines its own menuitems but then calls on nsContextMenu to set things up.
This alternative patch: * Replaces the onpopupshowing on contentAreaContextMenu, this means a getBrowser function is not needed nor is adding an event listener.

This patch: * Does the context menu the same way as mailContext does in mailWindowOverlay, but I do think this one adds as well as taking away some duplication of code.

Comment on attachment 530875 [details] [diff] [review] Use contentAreaContext for messenger compose window patch v1.0 Actually I can't decide between either of these patches. I guess it depends on which way turns out to be easier to hide the extra menuitems in the sidebar.
Comment on attachment 531470 [details] [diff] [review] Do it the same way as mailContext alternative patch v1.0 I see what you mean about the duplication, because we already have a context menu in this window, which means that we don't get the right overlay love.

Changes since v1.0: * Hide extra menuitems as default and unhide with JS in onpopupshowing. * Remove unneeded <popupset> tags in overlay. * Only update extra menuitems as rest are done by nsContextMenu code.

Comment on attachment 532052 [details] [diff] [review] Use contentAreaContext for messenger compose window alternative patch v1.1 [I don't think this is going to work, because the sidebar also uses context="contentAreaContextMenu" which will call openEditorContextMenu.]

(In reply to comment #10) > Error: window.getBrowser is not a function Oh dear. Regression from bug 562339 :-(

Changes since v1.1: * Use WhichElementHasFocus() to determine if on message body. * Take into account fix for non-browser sidebar issue (bug 656886).
