Bug#247403: epiphany-browser: timeout message blocks all browser windows

[Zeno Gantner]

Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 1.0.8-1
Severity: normal

A quite annoying "feature" of epiphany is that it blocks all epiphany
windows when a connection failed because of a timeout.

I often use epiphany on several workspaces, but I am "locked out"
if there is a timeout in one of the windows.

I do not think this is necessary, only the window the error message
belongs to should be blocked.

Epiphany is a great peace of software, it is far more useful than
the standard mozilla (only Firefox comes close), and I hope small
issues like this one will be fixed soon, to make it even greater.

Best regards,
   Zeno
