Bug #799007 removed support for security levels.
D'oh, I copied all the CCs. Sorry for the spam.

Attached patch remove Sync prefs (obsolete) — Splinter Review
We should also remove the Sync prefs that I introduced in bug 576970 and which got removed for FF through bug 799007 and bug 799009. [Feel free to merge into your patch; this is trivial enough that I don't require my name anywhere.]

remove Sync prefs

You were thinking of bug 810673, but I want to put those prefs back anyway...

Oh, actually warn_entering_weak can be removed.
Attached patch Revised patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
Also removed the warn_entering_weak prefs.

Revised patch

In the end, Help needs to be adapted, too.
Oh, and Page Info stuff too, sigh...
Attached patch Fixed patch (obsolete) — Splinter Review
I don't know what, if anything, Firefox is doing with Page Info so I thought I'd play safe and fork the strings, this allowed me to tweak one of them too.

Fixed patch

Doesn't security.warn_entering_weak need to be removed from nsThunderbirdProfileMigrator.cpp as well?

Where are the above strings used?

[ comment: (classic) InfoBackground on my system is rgb(255, 255, 225) which isn't very noticable. ]

Other than the above nits, stuff works as expected.

It occurred to me that I should rename the "new" strings to be in line with the rest of the strings, so instead of no prefix or a "Privacy_" prefix, they now all have a "security" prefix, since they are used on the Security tab.

Would it be better to say "Internet" rather than "network" here for consistency?

>+securityMixed1=Parts of the page you are viewing were not encrypted before being transmitted over the Internet.

r=me with that addressed.

At first I thought that it was repetitive but I notice that we repeat the term Internet for mixed content too, so it seems reasonable.
Pushed comm-central changeset 24ad7887d181.
