I most recently encountered it with high repro rates when using package elfeed -- a feed-reader. Elfeed keeps an index etc that can grow to 50mb plus -- it opens those -- and updates them as well using idle timers. Effect/Issue: When those timers fire, and Emacs opens those archive files, it can pop up the "file is x mb big, really open?" dialog. Now if this occurs while you're at the keyboard, answering yes works -- and there is no problem. However if this prompt occurs if you're away from your keyboard, or perhaps working in another window, then it becomes impossible to answer "yes/no" to that prompt from the "file is too big" dialog --- For elfeed the author checked in a fix that avoids the prompt --- but the fact that an async generated prompt cannot be responded to later is likely symptomatic of a deeper problem in input processing. --
