If I click a Live Bookmark to bring down the dropdown list of articles/pages, then push F12 to activate Dashboard, the Live Bookmark dropdown list will display at full brightness over any Dashboard widgets behind that screen real estate, and the Dashboard in/out animation is also hidden by the dropdown list.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click a Live Bookmark to view a list of articles
2. Push F12 to activate Dashboard
3. Observe results, and repeat as many times as you like, with any Live Bookmark on the hotbar.  It happens the same way every time.
Actual Results:  
The dropdown list displayed over/in front of the Dashboard widgets/animation

Expected Results:  
Displayed the dropdown Live Bookmark list beneath the Dashboard, and faded like the rest of the non-Dashboard items on-screen
Same problem happen with Bookmark Editing Dialog:

1. Click star button of already bookmarked page to show Bookmark Dialog
2. Push F12 to activate Dashboard
3. Bookmark Dialog will be shown over dashboard widgets

I think that we should rollup the popped up widgets when Dashboard is activated. Josh, can we handle such timing in nsChildView or something?
