Alerts appear to be "off Screen"

Reported by lord.let...@googlemail.com, Oct 13 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/53.0.2785.143 Safari/537.36

Example URL:

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Open Any webpage
2. Look for a form to fill out (login section, or "contact us here", for example)
3. Fill out form but omit somthing required (this will force somthing to remind you you've missed somthing
4. Submit
5. page frozen waiting for a responce on the pop up message that is not on any visable screen.

What is the expected behavior?
alert to pop up on the screen

What went wrong?
This issue has re-appeared (I believe this has happened before and was fixed for years).  Almost every webpage I brouse will seemingly freezes because an alert or popup has happened "somewhere" off screen and its waiting for my input.

Sometimes I can hit [ESC] and that lets me carry on.
Somtimes I need to hit [Enter] and hope to god I havent agreed to somthing nasty.

Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes

Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A 

Did this work before? Yes 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 53.0.2785.143  Channel: n/a
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

it doesnt have to be a form.  if a website, for example - any subscription based website that forces a full screen popup that warns you either alow pop ups or subscribe - will freeze because its waiting for you to click on the (X) to close the window that hassent appeared on yout screen.  to fix THIS particuar instance I need to crash chrome' with task manager.
 
I updated chrome, seems to be fixed again
