Ok, sometimes when I am downloading a file, I drag the progress meter bar in 
attempt to make it reach a higher percentage. In Mozilla, when you do that, it 
should temporarily go to a higer percentage and a few seconds later say "Nice 
try, don't you wish that worked?". This should be added immediately.
Honestly, stop this.

I don't see what is wrong with that request. What, did you have a bad day or 
something? pffffffffft!

Nice idea! See also bug 24839.
I think XP Toolkit/Widgets would be the right component, and reassigning to
nobody because of the helpwanted keyword.

If you don't know why any app definitely needs easter eggs, read

Yay ! Please do this !

That'd be a nice easter-egg, with long-time value (doesn't get old too fast).
Since we're severly lacking easter-eggs, I suggest to fix this.

i suggest we add a false "you have a virus" warning to .exe builds...wait, that
already happened..whatever.

How about a 'how many your base are belong to us' meter as well then ?
If we go for a purely textual Easter egg, this must be localizable.
Is there anyone that would be willing to accept this so it is not assigned to 
nobody@mozilla.org anymore.

Perhaps something other than saying "nice try" could be done. This is a good 
way to access any easter egg.

The All Your Base idea is an ok idea, but I really feel that the bug that is
accessed by this should be something original. People put on your thinking caps,
we need ideas.

how about opening a 3d looking "warp tunnel" download meter...have it POP/flash
disintegrate when the download completes.  this could be a pop up window running
some kind of neato Mozilla technology...SVG from Javascript?...
We're not going to do this ever in toolkit, and xpfe is on its deathbed, in
theory.  WONTFIX.
