Here's a simpler repro that demonstrates the problem more clearly: http://output.jsbin.com/mijefe This seems likely to hit users in practice. Eg. I click on links in my gmail that open new tabs, then one of them happens to spawn an alert box while it's in the background - boom of those tabs become unresponsive without any indication of which tab has the dialog box :-( To help us prioritize, has anyone observed this in the wild on a real site? |
