Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

- Configure FireFox to not ask for a profile at startup.
- Click twice on a fireFox icon. Two instances try to set up and one of them will find it's not the first and can't access the default profile. A dialog box is opened.
- Select the default profile, click "Start Firefox" (nl). Even though the other instance idle by this time, the blocked instance will not start-up; it will just report that the profile is still blocked.
The intention of the user seems clear, it's just not programmed.
