[Bug 1253517] [NEW] grey "screen" covers browser page

[Brent Geers]

Public bug reported:

Grey "screen" covers browser screen sometimes. Also has happened when
using LibreOffice. When I scroll, sometimes the greyness disappears,
allowing me to see the page again. Often, it remains. When I move my
mouse over the page, radio buttons on the page will reappear.
