Hi Cia,

I'd update the bug on OpenSolaris' site rather than opening a new bug on our side.

At the moment OpenIndiana/Illumos are focusing on sorting bigger/more critical bugs. Since this is more of a desktop related issue I don't think we'd be able to spend any time looking into it.

However if Oracle fix the bug and provide a future code drop after the Solaris 11 release, we could certainly backport the fix.

Cheers,

Alasdair
