Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.5.13-1
Severity: normal


Firefox displays mutiple dialods which are modal - prevent use of the
application and other dialogs.

This results in screen littered with cookie and authentication dialogs
when multiple pages are loaded at once. There is no indication which of
these dialogs is actually usable, and as all the dialogs are modal
displaying later dialog steals focus from earlier dialog and prevents
using it even if it is refocused.

Cookie and authentication dialogs are often displayed mutiple times for
the same domain/realm.

Any application should display at most one modal dialog and at most one
dialog with the same query for the same data.
