Bug 330706 [Compatibility] Opening and then closing a new window results in NPE
Reported: 2010-11-19 14:44:10 | Status: verified fixed

I opened a new window and then closed it. I get an NPE in the code dealing with the MApplications selected element and chosing a new active window. 2010-11-19 14:47:42.170 Log ErrorException while dispatching event
