I hope you and the Mail team will be able to work that in. I also
have a very tiny and non-critical UI request. It is that
traditionally, one can choose any of the buttons in modal dialogs
which don't have text boxes by typing a single key without
modifiers. For example when the options are "Save", "Don't Save",
and "Cancel", then one could just type a "d" and the 'DontSave'
action would be performed.
I assume you're not talking about Applescript here? I've actually
not heard of that convention before of using a single key. Sounds
useful, though.
Or a more common one is cmd-first letter of the button. Both of
these are very old Mac UI conventions.
Not just a convention, the standard "Save, Cancel, Don't Save"
dialog as implemented by the OS supports this. Unfortunately -- and
perhaps the reason Cricket never heard of it -- this behavior is
not supported by the sheet version, only by the modal dialog
version.
