mozilla/browserid — Issue #1263: opera: clicking close button on /sign_in tab leaves 'sign in' button unusable

State: open

This is only with Opera (Mac, XP, Win7, Ubuntu). Other browsers/OS work ok on this point.

Steps to reproduce:
1) go to beta.myfavoritebeer.org
2) click on the 'sign in' button
3) When the dialog comes up, click on the close X on the tab that is shown (Opera by default does window.open with tabs, not windows)
4) On beta.myfavoritebeer.org, click on the 'sign in' button to bring up the dialog again

Expected: The dialog tab is opened again

Actual: The 'sign in' button does nothing.

Note: I don't see any JS errors in the console for opera when this happens.

Note 2: I can do the equivalent of the above STR on e.g., mozillians.org, so seems generic to Opera's tab close behaviour.
