I think this is due to the background "save draft email" action interacting with an in-progress file-add.  If the file attach dialog box is left open for a couple of minutes then I get an unresponsive script dialog box pop up behind.  Neither the file select dialog box nor the unresponsive script dialog box respond to actions, and TB is then locked up.

The unresponsive script message is:

chrome://global/content/bindings/tabbox.xml:67

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compose new message
2. Click "Add attachment"
3. Leave file chooser dialog open for > 1 minute
4. Unresponsive script dialog opens.
5. Not possible to cancel file dialog or respond to unresponsive script dialog
6. Only option is to force quit on Thunderbird.
Actual Results:  
App locks up.

Expected Results:  
One or the other (or both) dialog boxes should accept input.
