Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open an https website in Firefox (I used Launchpad).
2. Click the blue (or green in case of an EV site) button to the left of the address bar (it contains the favicon and the domain name of the site, launchpad.net in my case). A borderless connection information window appears. It says "You are connected to launchpad.net which is run..." etc. etc.
3. Quickly click the "More Information..." button.

Now the borderless window that appeared in step 2 stays on top of the new Page Info window. I expected it to disappear or remain under the new window, but not obscure it. See attached screenshot.

I used Firefox 3.6 on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Beta 1 running from a live DVD.
