[QA] Reg::Timeout error on executing links.feature

[Chris McMahon]

The links.feature test is unique in that the browser running the test must
have focus in order for the clickable link text generated from the link
inspector to appear. When running this locally, if you start the test and
then use some other browser window or application while the test is
running, it will fail in exactly the way you describe.
