[Beta1] Can't access Certificates validation options Topic is solved

[JustOff]

In Alpha&Beta1@Windows "Tools->Options->Advanced->Certificates->Validation" results to complete browser lock.

It isn't an actual lock.. or a hang or a crash.. On Windows (and maybe mac) the Preferences (Options on Windows) Window and stuff it pops up.. in some cases are children of the windows they spawned from. Thus, disabling them from clicks.. If you had say another window open.. That would still work.. It is just a quirk of when things go wrong on child windows.

According to http://xref.palemoon.org/tycho-trunk/source/browser/components/preferences/advanced.js#648 this button is to spawn a child window with that chrome url.. However, it seems this UI has gone missing..

Actually, it is the last commit in toolkit/mozapps/preferences on Tycho's defunct repo kept around for historical reference .. Recorded here: https://github.com/MoonchildProductions/Tycho/commit/fe85da606784ea9486b1cebaa8879aead192d8a9

What would seem to need to happen is we must either revert this commit.. OR we should follow suite with an adapted version of the browser parts.. Taking into account that our preferences are not the in-content version..

Thanks for noticing this issue!

Reminder to my self.. Create an issue on github and fix this..

Off-topic:
Reminder to everyone else.. I am still awesome!
