Agenda view

[Jeff Allison]

I've got a simple suggestion for the agenda view that appears below the
calendar in the left-hand pane. Right now I see something like this:

- Tomorrow
|
- Interesting m.. Thursday, Ma...
- Boring meeting Thursday, Ma...
[etc.]

Since I know tomorrow is Thursday, May 11, I'd rather see the time. So
this instead:

- Tomorrow
|
- Interesting m.. 8:30-10:00
- Boring meeting 10:00-11:0...
[etc.]

This definitely sounds like a good idea! The one concern I would have
is with regards to the 'Soon' section. Here, the day is not as clear,
and I'm not sure whether we would gain or lose by having this section
display dates differently than the other sections. (Consistency is
good, too!) Thoughts?

'Soon' needs to display days as it'd be unclear otherwise. Personally
I've got no problem with seeing times under 'Today' and 'Tomorrow' and
days under 'Soon.' I think it's pretty clear that 'Soon' is a different
level of granularity.

This sounds fairly reasonable to me. An even easier improvement without
having to answer that question at all is to switch from long-form dates
to short-form dates. If you could file a bug in Bugzilla about this,
that would be great!

I definitely like Jeffs idea, too and whats more it seems to me to be
consistent with how dates are treated in TB!

OK, I'm pretty much sold on this. I've filed
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337848 for this, and I'd be
happy to walk any interested developer through any difficulties they may
encounter writing the patch.
