We can start by rendering our votes for the bug. I think if everyone
votes for the bug, it may have a positive reaction as to the speed of
its incoporation.

http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99823

So far there is only one vote and that is mine. I would suggest everyone
vote for it, if you want to show Mozilla that you really care about it.

Simon Montagu (smontagu at netscape.com) is the author of the patch,
though I don't think he has much of a hand in its incoporation.

Frank Tang (ftang at netscape.com) is the one who calls the shots
(unless I am wrong, someone please correct me). I don't know if
contacting Frank via email personally would do any good, but adding
comments to the above bug, indicating whether it works like you expect
it to, or if there are other issues that were missed, etc would also
help to give the right impression that a lot of people are anxiously
waiting for this to be resolved.
