472686 - "identity information" popup blocks link draging to bookmarks folder

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 312852

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[somhairle2]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.9.0.5) Gecko/2008120122 Firefox/3.0.5

while dragging an link from the fav icon to the bookmark toolbar (directly underneath the fav icon) a popup "this website does not supply identity information", etc stops the dragging (folder is disabled for this period) for at least 5 seconds. this makes things a little frustrating while updating bookmarks on an daily/hourly basis. I know its not a major issue, but having to wait is a pain. it would be better to popup above the address bar or over the actual address bar (at the end of the address).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
as above
Actual Results:  
as above

Expected Results:  
no popups blocking simple creation of bookmark

And it is not going to be fixed for Firefox 3.0, which is what you are using.
