Cannot tap to clear the connection error dialog in landscape orientation

When, using landscape mode, there is an error message when you can't connect. The error message doesn't go away when clicking outside of the error message, but you have at least show logs, and the bottom three options (connect screen, help and configure). The problems I see:

• it's hard to hit outside of the dialog when in landscape
• the error message stays, you can't see the reconnect or retry buttons
• when you touch the error message right at the spot where the "Try again" is hidden behind the message, it actually retries. I think this is the most confusing for me, the other two fall into the category annoying. To be even more clear: I clicked with the mouse pointer on the dark blue that is in front of the lighter color.
