Identity", occuring each time a web page overloaded with external content
is loaded.

No, it actually hasn't happened for me in quite a while. The closest I've
come was a rather long delay after hitting "New Identity" a few times in a
row. The browser did recover in that case, though, so it could have been
something else churning CPU (possibly that window close call from my
earlier comment, which may actually be a different bug).
If you think the external content/plugins/popups are related, a test html
page or URL that can at least semi-reliably generate the deadlock would go
a long way towards helping to figure it out.
