If I am on a site like cnn or youtube, or apple.com I notice that if I have my mouse down over minimize, restore, or the close button on the top right of each firefox window, the gui within the firefox window seems to freeze up, which is very noticable if videos are playing.

Its like they run in the same thread.

Tested this in IE and Safari and no problems.

Used flash player 9.0.124 aswell as tried flash player 10 beta 2. Happens with quicktime also.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Play video content, quicktime / flash etc
2. Press mouse down over minimize button without letting go
3. Wait a moment until video freezes.
Actual Results:  
Video freezes up.

Expected Results:  
Continued gui refreshes as I didn't actually mouse up over any of the window controls.
