Before the latest update to TBird, I was able to forward emails by simply using "drag and drop" to put the addressee in the "To" box and click send. Now I have to click on the "To" box to highlight it, then start typing the recipients name or email address, then select the address from a drop down list, then click send. Why in the world did you change something that was so simple and easy into something that is more complicated and wastes time? Change is not always good. Is there any way I can change it back? Is there a settings button I can select to make it go back to the way it was?

If you open the Contacts sidebar in the message composer (F9), and select contacts while holding Ctrl or Shift, they can be added to the To, Cc or Bcc box by drag and drop. Or, click the Add to button at the bottom of the sidebar. This is working here in 115, 128.
