If one script is in the middle of a prompt(), and a timer fires causing another script to execute, *and that script causes an error*, the script doing the prompt() is halted.

I've seen this on both Mac trunk and Linux trunk, so setting All/All.

This might be a dup of bug 52209.

I can't reproduce this in my trunk builds, but I'm not sure what fixed it.

I think that what made it go away is that the timer no longer fires while the dialog is present.  I think that's a good thing.
