Bug#392625: konqueror: kdewallet and cookie popup window interact badly
Package: konqueror
Version: 4:3.5.5a-1
Severity: normal
When going to a website where the cookie policy is 'ask' and these
cookies only get set when logging in, the kdewallet popup window and the
cookie alert popup window will pop up at the same time when first
logging in.
They happen in this order:
- KDEWallet: do you wish to store? (I click store)
- KDEWallet: enter your password
- Cookie alert: accept/reject cookies?
The problem here is that the cookie alert popup window takes the input
focus away from the kdewallet window, but it is not brought to front.
Worse even, you cannot click the kdewallet input window to regain focus,
you have to manually select the cookie window (which might even be
invisible at this point, and is in any case under the kdewallet window)
When changing virtual desktops, the kdewallet popup will follow and the
cookie window will not.
This behaviour doesn't seem logical (though it is understandable) and
I'd propose that either the cookie window should not steal focus from
kdewallet, or should be able to gain foreground from kdewallet.
All this was observed under Gnome (metacity window manager I presume). I
have not tested it yet under KDE or another window manager.
Steps to reproduce:
- Pick a site in which you have no kdewallet information.
- Make sure the policy for this website for cookies will be 'ask',
remove any existing cookies
- Attempt to login on the website
- When asked to store your login information, click 'Store'
- Attempt to input your password, the kdewallet input box should be in
front but not have focus.
greets,
Wim
