"Stop" means STOP means stop means ...

I often find that I am unable to make OW _stop_ loading a page (and all 
sub-requests). No matter how many times I select the STOP button, the 
status indicator still shows that the page is loading. (This isn't just 
a problem with the indicator, the Network Activity window shows that 
one or more elements of the page are active.)

A clue to behavior - several times when the page is still loading, the 
Network Activity window 'tree' show one or more elements aborted but 
still active. (That last is an assumption - the activity window seems 
to clear all elements that are not active from the tree/list.)

My guess is that loading the element may have been aborted, but the 
thread is hung. (I don't know how the requests are architected; 
'thread' is my term for 'flow of control' not 'O/S thread'.)


Any way to get this fixed for OW5.1?
