To be honest, I'm not sure if this is a Wordpress issue or a WebKit issue, but the current release of Safari shows it properly, so... When you highlight text and click the link button in Wordpress, the webpage grays out, and a dialogue box (using Java script or Ajax, not too sure) is suppose to appear over top everything and be usable, however it isn't. Here is how it looks on WebKit: http://img404.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture5qn3.png and Here is it on Safari: http://img522.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture6qf1.png (I hope I am doing this properly) I hope this helps, and I apologize for my lack of knowledge.

I see this as well. The link dialog is grayed out and cannot be interacted with. You need to close the window to get out. You cannot use the link dialog, must do by hand in html editor.
I'm having this issue as well. I'm logged into Wordpress. While writing a post I highlighted some text and clicked on the "link" button in tinymce. The link box popped up, but the entire screen greyed out and I was unable to interact with the page. All other windows and tabs were fine, just the Wordpress window in which I'd clicked the link button. I was able to duplicate the problem, the page is unusable after clicking on the link button. I don't see it happening when I click on the media buttons.
