What an intriguing theme. I’m emailing this to every individual that I know. This is just absolutely wonderful.

@Smokey: I’ll fix that in the next release, probably by changing the wording.

@C@rbon: I see the error too, though I’m wondering what could have gone wrong. It doesn’t affect the functionality of ViewAbout though, thanks for pointing it out..

Hi: the extension used to work great, but now when doing View –> ViewAbout –> {whatever} on Thunderbird Trunk builds, I get this in error console:

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIWebNavigation.sessionHistory]” nsresult: “0×80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)” location: “JS frame :: chrome://global/content/bindings/browser.xml :: :: line 641″ data: no]

No statusbar? Would probably be handy…

(…and also – developers would notice that the statusbar isn’t Unified on the mac)

Note that when you display about:license/about:licence, you'll be displaying the wrong file for Thunderbird (unless Tb's jar packing been changed subsequently); when I was working on auto-generating Tb's license.html in bug 428144, Phil assured me that Tb would never want the correct version in the jar. As a result, what you're seeing in the viewer is probably a generic Mozilla Toolkit license, rather than the Thunderbird license. You probably want to disable about:licen[cs]e in your viewer, or load the stand-alone license.html file, or fix the build system to jar the right file and set up a chrome override like I did for Firefox and SeaMonkey.
