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
Hi, The Debian Qt/KDE team is trying to update the bug status of some old bugs in the BTS, and I'm helping with this task. Some time ago, you've reported bug number 392625 "konqueror: kdewallet and cookie popup window interact badly" to Debian's Bug Tracking System. You can read the bug report at: http://bugs.debian.org/392625 We are sorry if nobody responded when you filed the bug, KDE has gotten more bugs in the past years than the maintainers could handle. The team is trying to fix this now, but we need your help. So please respond to this mail and tell us if: - you are still experiencing this bug (adding in what version) - the bug was already fixed (if known, in which version), - or if you have extra information on how reproduce this bug. Thank you for your cooperation! Olivier Vitrat helper for the Debian Qt/KDE team

I just upgraded to the last version (4:3.5.7-1) and tested it. The cookie windows still steals focus from the wallet, but it is now correctly in front, so it's partially fixed. I'd prefer if the wallet window didn't lose focus myself, and it seems more usable, but the bug is at least less severe now. greetings, Wim
