Public bug reported: Steps to reproduce:
1) add "Force Quit" applet to panel 2) get a large file (70 megs in this case) and rename it to end with .sh 3) open the file with gedit. gedit freezes. 4) click on "Force a misbehaving application to quit" applet 5) the applet starts, but clicking anywhere does nothing. Pressing esc does nothing. I didn't find a way to exit this situation without killing gnome-session from VT and this caused unsaved work to be lost.
