User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030516 Mozilla Firebird/0.6

When opening a pop-up window via JavaScript, the resulting popup window displays
the active sidebar on the left side.  For example, if I have my bookmarks open
by default in the main window, the popup window also has a bookmark sidebar. 
This makes using popup windows as dialog boxes for web applications very bulky
and messy-looking.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Firebird.
2. Display bookmarks in the sidebar.
3. Close Firebird.
4. Restart Firebird.  Bookmarks should be displayed by default.
5. Go to http://www.tickchat.com/bugzilla-popup.html (if this page is not
available at time of testing, create a page that just contains a link that
performs the following javascript call:
window.open('','test','width=500,height=500'); )
6. Click the link to open a popup window.
Actual Results:  
Popup window appeared, w/ a bookmark sidebar.

Expected Results:  
Sidebars should not be displayed by default in javascript popup windows.
