There should be a general mechanism (or interface) to set pref widget anytime on startup, when the pane is about to be visible or after some user action. The examples are: 1. Set the prefs list into "select" list 2. add/delete server should update the server list 3. After some user action(open a dialog box in pref), checkbox change state. 4. Select a widget resulting disabling/enabling other widges

The mechanism for 1,2,3 already exists: get the DOM element by ID, and set its value. It doesn't look to me as if any new work needs doing here. 4 is so common, I agree it would be good to have a magical mechanism so you don't have to code each one specially. Perhaps we can talk about this, Candice.

Set target milestone to M7. John, can we really add this feature?

Well, Don, I assume you're talking about item 4. This, too, may require no work on our part, it may be completely expressible in XUL. The current way to do this is to have one widget "observe" another. When the observed widget's value changed, the observer widget would enable/disable itself. Last time I heard, this was to be, but was not yet, supported in XUL. Candice, I'm marking this one "worksforme". If you find the current mechanism is inadequate, please reopen it.

Candice, I'm marking this as verified. If it works for you as well, great; if not, please re-open. Thanks!
