Thunderbird 0.5 freezes if an timeout error pop-up message comes up while you
are in the middle of dragging a message into a local folder.  

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.need an account which will timeout (dead server etc.) and create a popup
message saying "Connection to server timed out" (maybe other errors will do this
 too)
2.drag an email from the upper right pane (classic layout) to a local folder on
the left side, but don't drop the message until the error pops up (error
interrupts the drag drop process)


Actual Results:  
TB 0.5 hangs without having copied the email to the local folder.

Expected Results:  
the error message should not mess up the drag-drop process

I will attach a screen shot of my setup (pane layout showing error message and
drag-drop)
The screenshot shows the error message which pops up during drag-drop to create
the crash, along with the "source" message (upper right pane) and the
"destination" folder (bottom of left folder pane) which were interupted mid
drag-drop.
the cursor gets kinda jammed - try hitting the Esc button when it happens.
