Here's another example.

External disk, encrypted, listed in Thunar devices. I click on it.
Thunar brings pops up a password form. I enter the password incorrectly.
The form disappears. I tried a few times. (Damned passwords). But then
it seems Thunar hasn't let go of it. Thunar's 'busy' wheel is still
turning beside drive in its devices list. The Thunar process is using
22% to 24% CPU.

If I now click on the problem device I get this message: "Failed to
mount...  operation already pending"

Ah.

It's because I've got more than one instance of Thunar open on different
workspaces. The Thunar password form uses 24% CPU while it's waiting. If
I attempt to get the same disk in another window, Thunar gives an error.
It would help if it linked to the other password process, perhaps
summoning the form (not the other Thunar window as well).

This case does not explain all instances of this problem.
