When clicking on a network request, one gets a popup with request headers. But the window can't be selected with my window manager (awesome), and there's no button or other way (that I found) to close it from the UI. Being unable to select the windows means I can't close them with the appropriate shortcut (as windows don't have buttons), thus they just sit there indefinitely.
Mihai: you're on Linux... can you take a look and see how this works out for you?

This is a known issue, I believe, with xul:panels. It's part of their purpose to not show up in the "task bar" (using the Windows term here). The close button on the network panel title bar should show up. If it does not show for you, please tell us what window manager do you use, what distribution, and anything you believe is relevant to your system configuration. I also cannot focus the panel and close it with the keyboard. This is an accessibility issue with xul:panels in general.
