Mozilla stops respoding with certificate window

[Matt Patterson]

I dont think it is that they pop up in the bottom necessarily, I think 
it is just that I am swapping desktops and windows so fast on a regular 
basis that it will show up somewhere I am no longer looking. Because it 
occurs so rarely I sometimes forget to look for the notification. It 
really sucks because all firefox windows on all desktops stop responding 
but no notification is given to me when I foolishly try to use them. It 
would be nice if either other windows could continue to operate, OR, 
every window showed a notification of why it was useless at the moment. 
I like the first option the best! I dont understand why all windows of 
firefox should be dependant upon the current condition of one particular 
window.
