Unfortunately, that's not how it works.  Flash doesn't know why it's hung
and can't know why it's hung on a synchronous call to the system.  Flash
doesn't know that a modal dialog was opened.  All Flash knows is it is
waiting for the method it called to return a value.  As far as Flash is
concerned, the reason it isn't getting a response is that the code that is
processing the return value is running too slowly.  Again, this is due to
the nature of synchronous vs asychronous calls.  A bit of research on the
web should yield some useful information on this topic.

Again, it is not a bug because it works exactly how it is coded to work.
