But a big issue is that, i have to move the mouse to the new placement of the dialog, to find the next string. The big advantage with firefox is that, it just has bar at the bottom, which has a stationary bar and that too doesnt hides the data.

yes, it's awkward to use at first but once you "get it", it makes life
so much easier.
