Item12747: modal dialog vanishes when dragging it with the viewport being scrolled down

When replying to a comment (using threaded comments), if you try to drag the reply window, it seems to vanish -- it actually moves to the bottom of the page, out of view unless you scroll all the way down (it lengthens the page actually)... but it seems like it just vanishes and so you think you have to refresh the page in order to do anything else.

This is an error in jquery-ui's positioning code manifesting on firefox. It happens on any modal dialog as used by NatSkin, MetaCommentPlugin, EditChapterPlugin, ListyPlugin and a few others.

Please try upgrading your JQueryPlugin and configure it to use the latest jquery that comes with it.

The error doesn't appear anymore in latest JQueryPlugin on foswiki/trunk using jquery-2.1.0. Note that there have been more fixes to that code area in the latest jquery-ui release (release notes) ... which is yet to be added to JQueryPlugin. See Item12734.
