Idea: set the keyboard default (= action on pressing 'enter') and the double-click default action to connect/disconnect account.
This behavious seems to be more 'natural' to me.

Mass change of target milestone from 0.2a1 to 0.2 for bugs that we haven't fixed for alpha 1 but still think we are likely to fix before 0.2 final.

I added a method which proceed connect() or disconnect() if the button is not disabled and the state if either connected or disconnected (it does nothing if the state is connecting or disconnecting).

This method is called when the user dbleclick on the account (does not work if dbleclick is on the checkbox or a button), and the same method is called if DOM_VK_ENTER is pressed (the event handler is in the richlistbox this time).

Patch V1

Would something like this just work:
        document.getAnonymousElementByAttribute(this, "anonid", buttonElt)
                .click();

I'm not completely sure, but I think the click() method exists, and it is likely to do nothing if the button is disabled. Could you test this?

click() works.
It drops the amount of lines by 5 in this new patch.

This comment is not really understandable.
What about '// Determine which action is possible'? Or maybe just remove the comment?

>+        let buttonElt = this._account.disconnected ? "connect" : "disconnect";
>+        document.getAnonymousElementByAttribute(this, "anonid", buttonElt).click()
As we have just changed the variable name in bug 953650 (bio 204), I think we should call the variable 'action' here too.

>+      if (localName != "button" && localName != "checkbox")
I'm not really happy with this test (I'd prefer instanceof checks) but given that there was already a similar test in the code around, I guess I'll just accept it for now.

r=me with those details addressed. I can do this before pushing the patch if you don't want to attach yet another patch for so minor details.

During testing I found another issue: when pressing enter while the button of the default action is focused, nothing happens. The attached modified patch fixes this issue (and the details mentioned in the previous review comments).
