Description Milan Bouchet-Valat 2011-05-12 09:20:35 UTC 
If you try to close a window that has a child dialog attached to it from the overview by clicking on the close icon, nothing happens. Looks like the detection that a dialog is preventing you from closing the window only works if the dialog appears when you try to close, not if it's already present.

Steps to reproduce:
- Start gedit, type a few letters
- Click the close button (but don't close the dialog that appears)
- Go to the overview and try to close the window


This is with the Shell 3.0.1 from Fedora 15.
