<p>Well as far as I can tell the claimed "bug" doesn't actually happen anyway - the data does not load when the X is hit.</p>
<p>What does happen is that the data layer remains active and moving the map will cause a new load, with a new prompt that must again be cancelled.</p>
<p>Frankly we should just get rid of the data layer - it's pretty much unusable with the typical data density now in OSM and we have better tools (like the query tool) now,</p>
