Attachment: Missing Download Manager window screenshot

On my nightly build, i no longer see a download manager modal window.   It doesnt matter if downloading is in progress or completed, i cannot open the window.

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:2.0b7pre) Gecko/20100928 Firefox/4.0b7pre

See screenshot

Repro:
1) install nightly build
2) visit a site and download something (eg. see URL)
3) Trigger the download window with the different entry points:
* Tools > Downloads
* Window > Download
* CMD+J
4) Verify no download window appears

Expected:
- Download manager window appears

I can also see this with beta 6 and with my daily profile. It works fine in a fresh profile. Seems like something in the current list is blocking us from opening the downloads manager. There is no error visible in the Error Console.

Tony, you know how many entries you have in the list? In my case I have more than thousand. I really never clear the list.

Out of curiosity, could you attach your localstore.rdf file.  There is a bug that caused this problem with the DOM inspector too...

Sure, here you go

Yep.  Looks like the same issue: a large negative screenX persisted for the window.

So, this is bug 598673, which is already blocking - yay!
