Description Antoine Pitrou 2004-03-11 01:29:26 UTC 
An UI deadlock can occur under certain conditions :
- you open the location bar combo box to look for an URL in the history
- then, a modal dialog box pops up (e.g. to tell you you are being
redirected from an HTTPS site to an HTTP site), partially hidden by the
combo box

Then, the UI becomes completely unresponsive. You cannot close the combo
box, you cannot close the dialog box. Everything is blocked, even the GNOME
desktop does not respond anymore to mouse clicks. You have to kill the
Galeon process from the console.

Note: this is with 1.3.12, since Mandrake has not packaged 1.3.13 yet.
