Let me sign-in without losing the post I just wrote.
The happens to be on a regular basis. Here are my steps:
1. I want to make a comment or start a new post
2. I write the entire thing out
3. It's not until I'm finished GetSatisfaction reminds me that I need to be signed-in
4. Since I use openID GetSatisfaction tells me that I'm going to lose everything I just wrote when I leave the current page to sign-in.
5. Now I have a few options: a) give up b) sign-in and retype the whole thing c) copy&paste what I wrote so I can easily re-enter it later.
Note there is another annoying problem with option c. GetSatisfaction makes it look like I can select text, but I can't. I actually thought my browser crashed for a second, but then I realized I needed to cancel out of the current sign-in popup before I could select the text on the page.
This is really annoying since I forget that this happens almost every time I write a post... then after I'm all done sharing my thoughts I'm told I'll have to retype them again.
I spent a reasonable amount of effort sharing this issue with you. If you made me retype the whole thing again it'd be a major nuisance. Fortunately I already am signed-in since you just made me after I tried posting elsewhere.

Inappropriate?Hi Anthony,
Sorry to hear about your frustrating experience around this. We are examining how & when we handle signing in so that we can address these issues! -
Inappropriate?I know I asked for a few threads on the same issue to be merged into this one, but it seems this is the true original thread with MANY replies.
