Apparently, a long row of alert()s in JavaScript can stop users from being able to close a browser tab.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Browse to the given site [not safe for work]
2. Attempt to close the tab
3. See how the script prevents you from doing that
Actual Results:  
I cannot close the tab because of some lame script

Expected Results:  
I can, despite the message box, click the tab close button AGAIN if I want to force-close it, which would then close the tab and the message box instantly and terminate the script.

This is a dup of bug 61098, but as it looks like that one won't be implemented I'm going to dup this against bug 59314.
