Ouch, this is quite critical.
The queuing prevents crashes.
You need to implement queueing for detailed message boxes, or to get Waldo to 
do it ;), or to drop detailed error messages for now.
Better have a non-crashing dialog with no details than a dialog with details 
that makes KHTML crash.
(The "why does it crash" question has a long answer, related to
event loops, redirection timers etc.)
