  ****************************************************************
  Positioning elements too closely together and then
  connecting them resulted in a recursive loop that
  effectively hung the browser add-on and thus the browser
  itself.
  

Problem conclusion

• The algorithm used to determine the placement of the
  connector between two closely positioned elements was fixed
  to avoid endless recursion.
  

Temporary fix
