Basically what seems to be the problem is that the gui allows me to save
a capture that is still ongoing via the save icon.
It's a very nice feature (one that I'd like to have) but it seems like
the
system is not really prepared to do so.

True, it's not ready. I fixed it to not enable File->Save if we're still
capturing/reading from the file in r41415.

Actually r41416 should be much better: it disallows *all* file operations (including the icons in the toolbar) during a capture.
