CPU usage goes up to 100% and only the mouse can move (but can't click, keyboard does not respond). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start fx 2.open 5 or more tabs 3.change their places while pages are still being loaded... Note that you may need slow connection so that you can move pages while they are loading. Expected Results: tabs should change places without any hang or cpu usage. that's how epiphany works anyway.
