sujay found this orginally on windows using today's afternoon bits (tho the build id=0001808)...

uh, here are the details... 1. go to Edit > Preferences... 2. select a category other than Appearance result: Appearance remains in the right panel, no matter what other category is selected. expected: right panel should display selected category. sujay, did you see this *only* on windows? if so, win98 or NT? comm or mozilla bits? i haven't seen this behavior on linux (2000-011811 comm bits). instead i see something that may or may not be bug 24170.

looks like this is working again in today's 1/19 afternoon build. Sairuh, you can close this out..

setting this WFM, to put on my radar to verify... if it still doesn't work for others, reopen (and tell me the build id :-).

verifying.

Bulk move of all Pref UI component bugs to new Preferences component. Pref UI component will be deleted.
