88840 - changing themes disables quick launch until reboot

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 81715

(SeaMonkey :: UI Design, defect)

Description

[dildog]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:0.9.2) Gecko/20010628
BuildID:    2001062815

If you enable quick launch, and reboot, things load quickly.
If you then go to 'view/apply theme' and switch themes, the theme doesn't switch
until you restart the browser. When you restart the browser, the quick launch no
longer works. The box is still checked, but it appears that the quick launch
'cache entry' is invalidated or something. Incidentally, a reboot shouldn't be
necessary for quick-launch to work, just a little NT native-mode kernel hacking
to insert the appropriate section objects into \KnownDlls.

reporter: quick launch is really just an instance of mozilla that's run early 
which doesn't pop up a window.

enabling quicklaunch from the installer shouldn't require a reboot since all it 
takes is 'mozilla -turbo' - there's a bug about this.

switching themes shouldn't require quiting moz - there are plenty of bugs about 
this.

while it does require quiting moz, on exit we should spawn mozilla -turbo so 
that it can preload. =>xpapps. This might not be worth fixing because a fix for 
this might take as long as fixing the reason we need to do this...

Reopening. bug 88630 is really the inverse of this bug. That is, bug 88630
is that "if you don't fully exit, themes don't switch". This bug is "if you 
do fully exit, so that themes switch, then quick launch is not automagically
re-enabled".
