It's probably time to start looking at Firefox 2.0 compatibility. Check out SphereGnome 1.8 to see some code that is compatible both with Fx 1.5 and Fx 2.0, for example. The biggest things your theme is missing is the tab scrollbuttons and the disabled states for scrollbuttons. The latter code is located in scrollbox.css.

Thanks.

Those changes are actually in there, but that code has been in the submission queue for six or seven days. (After three days, I'd made enough further changes that I asked #amo to delete the first submission -- to keep from having two submissions in queue and to avoid an unneeded version number increment -- so maybe I should say it's only been three days since the replacement submission. Still, I was kinda hoping it would be approved in time for 2.0b1. I guess everyone's busy with the 2.0b1 release. Also the review queue may be very full of submissions from all the other people trying to be ready for 2.0b1. Right about now I'm wishin' I left my first submission in the queue ...)

Anyway, it's nice to have someone looking over my shoulder, so thanks again.

I IRC'd one of the reviewers this morning; there is in fact a significant backlog on the submissions queue. I didn't get any information about whether this was abnormal or not.

You are not the only one waitingfor approvals. When devs make such an important change right before a beta release, what do they expect?

Yes, the TabMixPlus/SuperT/Tabbrowser Extensions people must be "living in interesting times".

Talking out here (after the relatively low-traffic Themes forum) feels kind of like having a conversation on the side of the freeway.

Hey Spellbinder, do you think you could cop me a screenshot of the Filepicker dialog? I haven't yet been able to see this thing on Linux so I don't know how that looks.
