How do I disable the new alert message popups that darken the whole webpage and are completely intrusive?

Whenever a website or javascript pops up an alert message, Firefox4 now completely greys out the site. How do I turn this retarded feature off? Also how do I get my status bar at the bottom of the window back? Another retarded design decision.

You can look at the pref prompts.tab_modal.enabled to false on the about:config page.

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.
