The Burning Edge

Fixes:

• Fixed: 283697 - Firefox Preferences panels are cropped (cut off).
• Fixed: 175124 - Less destructive behavior for bookmarks "open in tabs" command. (See comment 26 for details.)
• Fixed: 317847 - Implement "Save this Search" for bookmark searches.
• Fixed: 394397 - Don't close bookmarks menu when cut/copy/paste are selected from context menu.
• Fixed: 230606 - Tighten the same-origin policy for local files. (For now, the default is "allow access to files in the same directory and subdirectories", but I'm hoping we can use "same file only" once we fix Tinderbox settings.)
• Fixed: 209234 - Local files can read directory listings.
• Fixed: 383183 - Include an identity indicator in primary chrome.
• Fixed: 377784 - Create an easy-to-use MIME-type configuration system. (New Applications prefpane, which replaces the Download Actions dialog and the Feeds prefpane and provides a better UI for configuring handlers for MIME types and protocol schemes.)
• Fixed: 377243 - Implement Download Resume. Update 2007-10-01: this allows "real" within-session resuming, but bug 230870 is required for cross-session resuming.
• Fixed: 227749 - Add "Copy Source Location" to download manager context menus.
• Fixed: 378216 - Disable insecure extension updates by default. (This also disables extensions that specify insecure update mechanisms.)
• Fixed: 297903 - Extension updates should link to further information.
• Fixed: 280419 - When a temporary file is created from the download manager it should be readonly.
• Fixed: 386163 - 'Set Desktop Background' refactoring: use canvas in all cases, support widescreen previews.
• Fixed: 394109 - Inconsistent text-decoration positioning.
• Fixed: 394261 - Update Hunspell to version 1.1.12.

Fixes for recent regressions:

• Fixed: 354768 - [Mac] Occasionally lose caret/focus in text fields and url bar (since Cocoa widgets were enabled).
• Fixed: 393247 - [Windows] Downloads no longer remember last download directory - always defaults to Downloads.

The tree is frozen for the Alpha 8 release (aka M8).

Trunk regressions:

• Since ~Aug 28: 394079 - Location bar autocomplete hangs after first character is typed, regardless of speed of character input.
