Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:12.0) Gecko/20120423 Firefox/12.0 SeaMonkey/2.9 Build ID: 20120423002905 Steps to reproduce: 1. In SeaMonkey, have something important in the currently-focused tab. 2. Choose Window > Composer and edit a frameset (I edited one created by the `pdftohtml` utility). 3. In Composer's Normal view, right-click in one of the frames and choose This Frame > Show Only This Frame. Actual results: Composer opens that frame in whatever the current browser tab happens to be, potentially losing all that tab's state including the textarea containing an hour's work! That seems to make this a data loss bug. Expected results: Either change the menu item when in Composer to This Frame > *Edit* Only This Frame and load it in Composer, or disable the menu item in Composer since the behavior of opening the frame in the browser is already in other items in the This Frame submenu.
