you mean 78089 is wfm not this bug, right?  yes, the dialog wording has
since changed, but it's only partly fixed because the tab is still not
identified (this bug), as timeless suggests in bug 78089 comment 0.

identify the offending URL is surely a pain with lots of tabs, say 200+.

Title:
  "Unresponsive script" note doesn't indicate which tab / page

Status in The Mozilla Firefox Browser:
  Confirmed
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in “firefox-3.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  When using multiple tabs and multiple browser windows, there is no way
  (that I am aware of) to find out which tab causes the "Unresponsive
  script" dialog to appear.  How can I decide whether to "stop or go"
  when I don't know which page contains the offending script?

  You can find a screen shot e.g. at
  http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8559601/Warning%3A%20Unresponsive%20script.png
  so I'm not attaching another one.

  To my uneducated self, it would seem like a good fix if the dialog's
  title and/or the description could contain the URL of the page
  containing the problematic JavaScript.  (Still, with 16 browser
  windows and an estimated total of 200 tabs, a challenge to find it.)
