If the dock is set to hide when a window overlaps it, I think we can ignore these dialog windows. After all, they are dialogs of a parent window, and this one is probably maximized, so it hides the dock.
It's the other case that causes trouble (dock hides on active window), because popping the dialog window will make the parent window lose the focus, so the dock will re-appear. If this case is fixed, I think we're ok (and by the way, as another solution, when a dialog window appears, we could also get the parent window, and consider it didn't loose the focus). 2013/1/1 Matthieu Baerts <[email protected]> > @fabounet: the problem is that this kind of windows are not tracked by the > dock except if this window is active. > What can we do?
