Reply cancelled without warning when I press "vote as helpful"

Question
-
Hi All,
I observed that while I was replying for a post and not yet pressed "Submit", I pressed "vote as helpful" on another post. When I do that it did not give me a warning and voted the post I pressed as helpful but however cancelled what I was typing in my reply. I expected that "vote as helpful" would be implemented as an Ajax call and my reply would not be cancelled. Even if my reply was cancelled without me explicitly asking to, it should have given me a warning. Please look into it.
Thanks,
Venkat
PS: I am using Google Chrome browser but I believe the behavior is the same in other browsers too.

Hi Venk !
I can re-produce this with Firefox 15.0.1. The strange this i notice is when i clicked "Vote As Helpful", it cast my vote and closes the reply window from screen but somewhere it has stored the information that reply window is already opened because when i tried to click "Reply" or "Quote" button it shows me Alert Message "You already have a reply open, please close before continuing".
So i have to refresh my window because i don't see any reply window. Surely this will be logged as bug.
Another bug is when i have Already Voted post as Helpful it still showing "Vote As Helpful" but when i clicked it it shows "Unexpected Error" Alert Message.
Please let me know if this doesn’t work for you. Hope I have answered you correctly.
