Attachment: patch

Like in bug 785480 comment 9 proposed, I've added the menu item on calendar list context menu.

Attachment: patch for aurora/beta

The same patch for Aurora/Beta without localization. I've added the label/accesskey entities directly to the XUL file. If the translation still would happen, then this would be taken.

Why not reuse the existing, already translated menu string instead of hard coding the English string into the xul file?

Because the string is only "Calendar File…" without "Open". I don't know if it would work when I make a patchwork of the two strings "Open" and "Calendar File…". I can try this this evening.

Ah, OK. I see now that "Open Calendar File…" is only defined in sunbird/menuOverlay.dtd but not in Lightning.

Comment 6

[Richard Marti (:Paenglab)]

I checked how the joined label would look in German: Öffnen Kalenderdatei…
This isn't good German so I think it's better leave it English than this weird German or other langage (maybe they also need to change the order).

We could also just use Open -> Calendar File as a sub-menu for aurora and beta. It would be inconsistent with the "Open Saved Message" menu item, but better than an untranslated string IMO.

Yeah, I agree. Maybe modify the DOM like this:

Open >
        Calendar File
        Open Saved Message

Now on AppMenu/File with the new submenu "Open" like on main menu.

Do we want this also for trunk? Then we have not only this menu for two versions.
