I had several tabs open, some of them were loading. I moved one of the tabs. At the same time the window to confirm a cookie popped up. After that I couldn't select or click on anything, I couldn't even close firefox.. had to kill the process.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open e.g. 3 tabs. On of them must be loading
2.Drag a tab (do not drop)
3.Wait until a cookie confirmation window pops up
Actual Results:  
Firefox hung-up, couldn't click on anything.

Expected Results:  
let me finish moving the tap (drag and drop) while the confirmations window is visible.

Someone requested an enhancement that the cookie confirmation window should be only in the tabs scope. I suppose this would fix the problem.
Well I tried it another three times with the same result.

Reproducible: Happens all the time
Reproducible on:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

Good catch of this corner case
