wait for save dialog to only affect one tab, not entire browser

Clicking on something that pops up the save dialogue sometimes makes Opera entirely unresponsive. This most probably happens when the last download location is temporarily unavailable (e.g. network drive initialising slowly or local drive spinning up), and everything proceeds as usual after the drive becomes available (10.53 on Win7 x64).

It is understandable that Opera has to wait for the drive, but perhaps it'd be possible to reduce this waiting to only the affected tab/window while the rest of the tabs would be still usable?
