SUMMARY
Effect "darken parent of dialog" sometimes does not reset, even if dialog is
long closed.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. right click picture in Firefox and save as - dialog opens to ask filename,
parent windows darkens as expected
2. cancel dialog quickly by pressing ESC
3. repeat a few times
OBSERVED RESULT
The parent stay dark. It get's even darker, if you open another dialog
A "ghost" of the parent is shown over the desktop if you minimize the windows
one by one - but you can finally "grab&drag" a file from the desktop through
the ghost, though you cannot see what you grab, until the mouse holds it.
Switching to another desktop, the ghost might be drawn over existing windows.
Alt+Tab can bring other windows to the top over the "ghost".
EXPECTED RESULT
The darkened ghost shall disappear. Eventually, it could monitor the parent
window on a timed basis, if any dialogs remain?
