It seems this issue affects also safari / the mac port.


Test case: https://people.igalia.com/clopez/wkbug/164853/

In their case is not grave as on webkitgtk+ because the javascript alert popup don't blocks the browser UI, so you can just close the tab.

So I think there may two issues here:

 1) Make our JavaScript dialogs not blocking the main UI interface: for example, that you can minimize the dialog or move it offscreen with the mouse and still have a working UI that allows you to close that tab without having to kill the browser.

 2) Allow the user to stop a given page for creating more javascript popup dialogs. Right now, this is also not working with the mac port (safari).
