neither of these bother me. and i'm certainly in favor of adding a stop option to the dialogs for firefox. it's definitely managable. today some of our dialogs get an extra 'debug script' button under certain conditions. The only concern I have is that someone from UE/UI will complain that such a button will confuse people, as it becomes trivial for a user to break any web site and not necessarily understand that what they did was the cause. However, that's a bridge I'm willing to try to cross.
