Running log of bugs reported in the forum thread and known issues:

  • No FAYT
  • Missing patches
    • Bug 425958 - Content area flashes grey when opening new blank tabs (1.9.0, 1.9.3)
    • Bug 459744 - Javascript can consume all keystrokes in content area, including tab and app menu shortcuts (1.9.0; Camino-only work-around; josh won't take patch elsewhere; major)
    • Bug 453222 - nsCocoaWindow_NSWindow_sendEvent: changes exception behavior in code having nothing to do with core (1.9.0, waiting for others; crashes)
    • Bug 496582 - nsCocoaWindow_NSWindow_sendEvent should not assume |self| will remain valid (1.9.0, waiting for others; crashes)
    • Bug 379199 - Key events (delete/backspace, escape, etc.) aren't propagated up the view hierarchy (1.9.0; Camino-only work-around; unclear if it will be accepted elsewhere)
  • Bug 383009 breaks the ability to set integer prefs - needs filing; hack-around possible
  • Disabling crashreporter disables about:crashes; we need to make our own About Module for about:crashes - Bug 546173
  • flight.mk needs to switch to toolkit.jar (build bug, but file lives in Core)
  • Bug 509130 (IdleTimerVector/PoolCleaner) appears not to be fixed for embedding
  • Something (probably Gecko) helpfully assumes that every failed connection means you should be in Offline Mode, and the instructions for turning off Offline Mode don't apply to Camino.
  • Possible focus-related bugs
    • Following a link from an external app doesn't always focus the window/content - e.g can't page down/up, can't tab to links and/or form controls (the focus is 'somewhere' or nowhere). Clicking in the page - but not browser chrome - restores functionality. This happens when the link is opened in the foreground from any app
    • Flash on obscuresound.com earlier. (I have Flashblock enabled but whitelisted for that site.) The Flash was unresponsive to clicks when switching to the page from another tab. Clicking on the non-Flash portions of the page would restore focus to the content, after which the Flash became responsive.
    • Another loss of focus: Cmd-shift click a link to open it in a new foreground-tab.
    • Can't drag-and-drop text within text fields.
  • Setting the Download Folder in Preferences doesn't stick (Bug 454242 probably broke this)
  • I notice three-finger swiping to navigate between current and previous pages is busted on my MBP - bug 412486 comment 46 for changes needed
