Perhaps there is a misunderstanding. because
a) I said nothing about not doing an addon, and
b) your bug summary says nothing about reunification

then apparently I have goofed, and am happy to say so. it would help
please to change your bug title/summary so one doesn't have to read 100+
comments to understand the basics of the bug, and get summarily blasted
when we make seemingly useless comments. maybe even resummarize the
goal.  Bear in mind, if you conflate multiple goals, the patch is much
more complex, and less likely to be accepted into core - addon or no
addon.

big kudos to Iago and all for working to improve Tbird.
