Comment (by T(A)ILS developers):

 Replying to [comment:34 mikeperry]:
 > I am still not sure what we should do by default. Has the helpdesk seen
 mail about this yet? If so, how much?

 The Tails help desk received at least one complain about that. On
 blockchain.info:

 - Login, go to send money, select shared coin, put in a amount, address,
 etc.
 - Then hit send payment.
 - It will pop up a window within that window that will process the
 javascript functions.

 This triggers a warning that the script is unresponsive but checking the
 checkbox to not show it again and selecting "continue" will continue
 without further errors.

 Just selecting continue will prompt it to load the error box again and
 again and again and it will not complete the process.
