User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1
Build ID: 20120713134347

Steps to reproduce:

Chose to protect my privacy by previewing all cookies.
Chose to install Silverlight upgrade.
Mac OS X 10.6.8 if it matters.
I think that's Snow Leopard, but never have worked out the Mac feline names.



Actual results:

The cookie popup prevented the save dialog from saving while the save dialog prevented the cookie popup from accepting clicks while the save dialog prevented the cookie dialog from accepting clicks...

This effectively locked up Firefox completely.

Even quit from docking tray didn't work.

I had to open a terminal and kill -9 it. I doubt your average user would know how to do that, and would have to reboot the whole machine.

Actually, there was another cookie dialog under the save dialog. Maybe the third dialog was the cause.



Expected results:

At least one of the dialogs should have let me finish something.
Maybe it was the third dialog.

For all I know, there were 20 cookie dialogs piled up behind these two.
