User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:49.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/49.0 Build ID: 20160928160550 Steps to reproduce: Cause a script to execute for a long time (for example on executing "for(;;);"). Actual results: The new "A web page is slowing down your browser. What would you like to do?" dialog is shown which provides the buttons "Stop It", "Wait" and a close button. Expected results: Clicking the close button causes the dialog to reappear immediately so it looks like it has no use here and maybe it can be removed for this dialog.

In principle you can find a web page where giving it more time will complete; so the X makes sense.
