Thunderbird support?

[Marc Sherman]

Would it be possible to make this plugin work in Thunderbird as well?

Thanks,

I haven't really worked with Thunderbird, but perhaps I'll find some
time to investigate this soon.

I hacked up the 3.0 version of your plugin to work in thunderbird. The
big change I had to make was to remove use of the FUSE library for
prefs reading, because it doesn't exist in thunderbird. I extracted
all prefs access to a helper method, but I haven't actually
implemented it -- as it happens, I didn't need it because I don't
change any of your default prefs. I'm sure it's pretty easy to
implement in a firefox and thunderbird cross-platform way, though.

Note: I'm not at all a mozilla hacker -- I basically figured out what
I needed to do with google and the Error Console. So if there's any
egregious errors in my changes, please forgive me. :)

Here's the patch:
