Bug 1847809 Comment 3 Edit History

Note: The actual edited comment in the bug view page will always show the original commenter’s name and original timestamp.

I can reproduce, using Firefox 22.04 with snappified Firefox.

It doesn't have anything to do with the print dialog, though.  I can reproduce with just Ctrl+S while viewing https://example.org .  (The first time I do it, I usually just get one save dialog; but if I dismiss it and try again, I was able to reproduce it that time.  This happened in two consecutive browsing sessions.)

It seems like the issue is that file-save dialogs just keep appearing over and over and over again, and if you close one, there's a stack of ~tens more underneath.  If you hold down the Esc key, then you might eventually clear all of them.  So: the browser isn't frozen exactly; it's just covered up by a large stack of redundant dialogs.

I suspect this is a snap-specific issue. I can't reproduce this in Firefox release direct from Mozilla. (Also, the save dialog looks a little bit different there.)
