Details

I have two mozilla windows opened. One with mail, second where I typed url of passworded page and a "enter password" dialog appeared. Problem is that when there is some dialog like "enter password" activated, I can't do anything in all other mozilla windows, they are blocked. I suppose that only the one window which is asking for password should be blocked from receiving input, not the others. (I was unable to copy&paste the username and then the password from the email in another window to the dialog, as it was disabled) There are more similarly annoying situations where i need to do anything in other mozilla window before responding to the dialog. I suppose that the same bug will probably affect other dialogs too (acceps/refuse certificate in https, allow/refuse cookie/image, some other password/forms manager dialogs, etc ...)
