Please give some information about the used GTK theme, the
environment you use it in (KDE or GTK), and if you're using a
compositing manager or EXA. I can't reproduce it on my laptop
which runs GNOME.
I can confirm this, opera hangs loading a page with a flash
animation; then it only show a grey rectangle without any
contextual menu. Manually downgrade to gtk2-2.10.13 seems to solve
this issue.
I use KDE with QtCurve theme. The QtCurve theme is set in GTK2,
too. (qtcurve-kde3-0.52.3-1, qtcurve-gtk2-0.52.3-1) I don't use
any compositing manager, just pure kwin.
Found out the OpenOffice part of this bug is caused by invalid
initialisation of GTK in openoffice when operating in KDE UI mode.
I think this is also true for flash when running under opera
(Opera isn't a GTK browser). I think I found the commit that
causes the freeze. When running strace on openoffice when this
happens it shows no action, which looks like a deadlock to me.
There's a commit that sets some lock/unlock statements in the
latest version of GTK, so reverting that one should do it.
