Linux pc build: 2001052508

If I'm in the mail browser, I cannot select all the messages for a given folder
by using either the menu command or Ctrl-A.
Neither can I.  This is most certainly a 0.9.1 blocker!

Summary: Cannot select all messages in a folder in the mail browser → Select All broken
cc'ing nbaca and some people who might be able to look into this as well.  I'd
be curious to know the extent of the problem, see if it's an easy fix and then
decided if we need to get this in. It seems to work sometimes but not always.
cc Varada also.
It works for me as long as the "Select All" is enabled.  I'm using commercail
build 2001052404 (the last build from 05-24) on WinNT4.0.  The Select All mennu
is disabled when I click on the current selected folder.
Build 2001-05-24-04: WinMe
Build 2001-05-25-08: Linux RH 6.2
Build 2001-05-25-04: Mac 9.04
Reproduced on all platforms. Once I get into a state where Select All does not 
work, if I select the message pane or the folder pane and then go back to the 
original message in the thread pane then it works again, but not for long.
I see this on my tip winnt build.  investigating...
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
Target Milestone: --- → mozilla0.9.1
Steps to reproduce:
1. Login to Mail
2. Select the down arrow so that a message is highlighted in the thread pane
3. Select Edit|Select All

Actual Results: Nothing happens. 
If I select the folder pane or message pane, then reselect the SAME message then 
Select All/Ctrl+A works and it breaks once another message is selected.

Expected Results: Select All/Ctrl+A should always work if a message is selected 
in the thread pane.

Additional Information:
- Message pane: Always selects all the text.
- New message/compose window: Always selects all the text.

I talked to mscott about this problem is he said that it's a xptoolkit bug not 
setting the focus back to the thread pane.

As pointed out by Ninoschka, in the working case, the ThreadPaneController is 
correctly triggered with the selectAll command and the DefaultController is 
correctly not triggered with the selectAll command.

In the case that it does not work, the ThreadPaneController is not triggered 
with the selectAll command while the DefaultController is.

Changing product and component.
