[10.60 6344] Opera blocks whole input when saving images

When I want to save an image via right click -> save image..., opera sometimes opens kde4 save dialog and blocks whole X input, this happens precisely when the context menu stays on top of save dialog, like in attached screenshot.
Nothing works, yakuake doesn't show up when pressing respective hotkey, I cannot control amarok, even visual app killing via ctrl+alt+esc is not possible.
The only way is switch to a VT, login and kill -9 $(pidof opera).

Happened to anyone? And also sometimes save dialog is extremely slow, which doesn't happen with other apps.

KDE, right? It is specific to the KDE dialog, doesn't happen with the GTK dialogs (haven't tested with the simple X dialogs). Yes, known, happened to me and some of the other volunteers already.

Aha, so opera is having issues with kde4 environment. There are two noticed problems:
- that blocks whole input (opera menu over save dialog)
- save dialog is sometimes extremely slow when opening folders, selecting files to overwrite...

I'm searching for ini option - will switch to some else dialog for some time and see if the problem persists.

Shouldn't need to with the latest snapshot, they appear to have fixed it. If you aren't up to date (build 6347) then go get it.
