I just discovered the View Thread in Browser feature in the message list's context menu.  I think it should be removed there, not only because it seems to be a bit broken (see bug 178118) but also because the context menu is quite full already.

Unfortunately I couldn't find a regular menu entry for this feature, a clear violation of any UI guideline.
Comment 1 Malte S. Stretz 2008-12-19 00:23:31 UTC 
Oh, I just discovered the Export to HTML... feature in the context menu.  Also a rarely-used feature (which overlaps with the View Thread in Browser one I think) which doesn't have a regular menu entry as well.  Save Attachments... is missing one as well.

Both Export to HTML... and View Thread in Browser should be removed from the Context menu IMHO.
Comment 2 Malte S. Stretz 2008-12-19 00:26:09 UTC 
If you dig around there are a lot more context menu entries without corresponding main menu entries, for example all the Favorite Folder stuff.
Comment 3 Thomas McGuire 2009-01-18 15:50:13 UTC 
The action has now been removed completely.
Comment 4 Malte S. Stretz 2009-01-18 17:36:55 UTC 
Are the other missing menu entries fixed as well?  If not, I'll open a new bug.

No, only Export to HTML has been removed.
