[Bug 237542] [NEW] Grey "processing" screen overlay does not disapear while firefox remains functionable (confusing)

[krlhc8]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I was clicking around in firefox while synaptic was installing some
packages (unrelated to firefox (was actually the game "Scorched")) in
the background when the GSOP (grey screen of panic) overlayed on top of
firefox.  Per linux instinct, I thence halted the clicking and typing
and waited for thing to be everything to return to normal.  My cursor
returned to normal, yet the grey overlay still remains even as I type
this bug report.  I'm not sure if this is a linux problem (Ubuntu
distro) or a firefox issue.
