Project for 'after 5.2 release'

I think 5.2 is stable now.
I using as base for things I working on.
Could have a system on Linux box , use the share directory as link in Mac
and open from Mac and save changes.
So the .image works from Linux or from Mac remote on same network.
I check all bugs reports of 5.0 to now in Mantis for if still relevant.
Test on Linux gives only one red .
Wish change status to beta, close any new thing and only acept fixes.
And all Chris said and more could be 5.3 plan.

Hi Edgar,

I have opened up the 5.2 alpha (18167, 64bit, Windows 10) and noticed a few things we might want to fix before the release:
- Without adjusting the window size after opening the image the following happens: When starting the UI configuration assistant the list of themes and visual settings options is too long. It moves into the "Previous" and "Next" buttons

- Test failures:
  - BrowserTest>>#testAlphabetizeMessageCategories
  - BrowserTest>>#testMessageCategoryList
- I have found an issue in the MailSender infrastructure. It is a proper fault with some methods missing from the class. As I have done the changes previously, I have a fix ready. Should I commit it?

Our CI infrastructure does not have a real display and the virtual one appears to be too small for the dimensions needed to make the UI work correctly. Another fix would be to make the UI 800x600 compatible, not sure if that's an option.

I'm not sure if it's still in there (really, it should never have been but that's a different story) but the image header used to have some data specifying a window size. You *could* do a little header manipulation to set it to whatever size you think appropriate post-save.
