When changing a key to a duplicated one, jabref warns and freeze. Actually it freezes so bad that I cannot even kill it with the gnome xkill applet, first time for me that xkill cannot kill a window in years! Have to use pkill java.

To reproduce:
change an existing entry to an existing key

System: jabref2.8beta on Ubuntu 10.04

A freeze is kind of a serious issue.
