Any dialog popping is hardly possible, at least to my knowledge now. We 
can ask mozilla if they can do something for us. According to
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Command_Line_Options
there shoudl be some -kill and -killAll option to "mozilla", but I was not 
able to trigger it to find what it is doing. Seems to me, it is outdated 
or something..
