Bug Description
If the browser has multiple tabs open, a javascript dialog for a background tab will display on the currently visible tab.
The dialog should either display when the user switches to the tab that is associated with the dialog, or the browser should automatically switch to the tab that is associated with the dialog.

It is intended that the javascript dialogs are application-modal, not tab-modal.
However as you point out when a dialog pops up, the corresponding tab should be made current.
