 Priority:  normal            |      Milestone:           
Component:  TorBrowserButton  |        Version:

 Steps to reproduce:

 1. open a new tab
 2. press CTRL+SHIFT+K to open the console
 3. type alert(0) in the command line and press enter
 4. press CTRL+SHIFT+K to close the console
 5. select New Identity from Torbutton

 The tab will fail to close. I noticed this on a website that prompts users
 when it detects a Tor exit node, if you press New Identity without closing
 the alert dialog then the tab will remain open.
