Click/Touch inline images to zoom

[leoperbo]

When reading messages with inline images, they are zoomed out to fit some kind of default size that keep it inside the viewing area without horizontal scroll bars, which is good, but you have to download the image and go out from Thunderbird to open it in another program for zoom in.

Offer a zoomed in tab or overlay frame for inline images when they are clicked/touched.

Thanks for submitting an idea to the Mozilla Connect community! Your idea is now open to votes (aka kudos) and comments.

As a workaround for the time being:
Attachment Viewer: view in a tab, slideshow | addons.thunderbird.net

OMG! It's a great workarround! I've been looking for an extension like that with no luck until now, thank you.

I hope that, some day, the idea of click/touch images to zoom in will be materialized as a Thunderbird's native feature.
