A 'Delete All' function so imports of '*.minimap' files don't double/treble/etc locations
First off, a great Firefox add-on. What would be really handy though, would be a 'Delete All' function so imports of '*.minimap' files don't double/treble/etc locations. I have another tool that I wrote that finds locations of book stores. I have changed my tool to also write a 'bookstore.minimap' file and was able to import it into the Minimap add-on. Great. So next time I run my tool (in a few days time), it creates my 'bookstore.minimap' file and I import it, and I get double the locations in Minimap. What would be good would be to clear out the existing list before a fresh import. A 'Delete All' function. This would be a simple extension of the code you already include for 'Delete' from your popup menu. What do you think?
I’m puzzled why it wasn't already included

Inappropriate?Shift click or control click all the entries in the addresslist to select multiple items to delete, then delete using delete key or right click and select delete.

Inappropriate?But it was a little difficult deleting around 500 addresses from the list. If I try to scroll the list too fast, the scrolling process stops and the whole widget starts being dragged away (as if the widget is try to 'drag and drop' itself). It wasn't quite so easy deleting 500 addresses from the list.
I’m Frustrated

Inappropriate?I noticed the same issue with trying to drag the scrollbar. It appears that if you have an address selected the selection reached all the way to the right where the scrollbar is and thats why the drag/drop action occurs. You can easily easily work around this by selecting the first entry, then Hold Shift+Page Down to select all the entries.
I do agree that a Delete All button would be handy or even an option to skip entries on import if already in the address book.
